Hi Tom,

I'd read about resetting type preferences to not displaying the typeface in the menu in several places, but when I tried to find the 'type preferences' in my Photoshop, they simply aren't there. I then set on a search about finding 'type preferences' in Photoshop 7 and everything I saw was for I guess newer versions of Photoshop which had different menus. I'd also read about resetting the general preferences as well, and though not a newbie to designing and using a computer, I am also far from a computer guru, so resetting general preferences reminded me of the time my mom came to visit me, here in Bali, and she was trying to put the flash on the camera and pressed 'reformat' and it erased 2 weeks worth of photos, so I was a bit apprehensive about pressing buttons that give me a warning: "are you sure you want to do this becasue it can't be undone".

Incidentally the person I'd spoken about earlier did send me their font file. I deleted my font, shut down, installed hers, shut down again and restarted and... still not working. I also ran the font file she sent me through the font validator and it too had a few red flags,so I have no idea. I think I am going to call my tech guy to come and reinstall Photoshop for me and hopefully, fingers crossed, that will solve the problem.

As far as other fonts go, there aren't any that I know of that aren't working, then again, there aren't many that I use that often or any that are as important as this one. I do know, however that I have downloaded a few fonts from free sites for specific projects that do work. I am really hoping that a new installation will sort that out.
