Sandi,
The idea is to have a separate copy of ALL of the fonts that have ever
been available to you, even if you later choose to remove (or not reinstall)
the app that gave them to you. This certainly includes the Windows
operating system.
For one thing, newer versions of Windows occasionally bring new versions
of your system fonts. If you decide for whatever reason that you're not all
that happy with an 'improved' version, you will still have a copy of the
older one you can use instead. Plus, a font is nothing more than a file and
can experience corruption damage. You would easily be able to Copy your
copy of the offending font (from the Xtra folder) back into the Windows Font
folder (overwriting the corrupted one) and be 'back at it' like nothing
happened. :O)
Peace,
GMan
