thanks Tee, I was wanting to use them in graphics. I ingored fonts for a long time because of what you said about my website surfers possibly not having those fonts installed. Looking over my log files I see an occasional win95 user, even an AOL 4.0 once in a while. my first attempts at graphics editing are so basic... I wanted to spice em up a little. it was surprisingly easy to install em.
