When I was looking around in the fonts folder this afternoon I double
clicked on several and it showed what the font looked like. Is there a
program that shows them in a list? And while I was at Linda's Computer Shop
I saw several free apps for managing fonts. I may try one (or the one you
used, G, to see if I like it.
