- You are not alone. It seems, that True-Type fonts do not work in NT/green
- (October Release). I think the problem is, that NT/green does not recognize
- the .TTF files, but only the .FOT files. I have installed NT on drive D: and
- my assumption was, that NT/green has "hardcoded" .TTF file searching to
- C:\WINNT\SYSTEM or C:\NT\SYSTEM, but it didn't work either. I was also not
- able to install other True-Type Fonts (from Corel-Draw 3.0) in WINNT. I got
- an error message "Failed to add font" or something similar.
