truetype fonts problem...

[boice tomlin]

Hello,

I would start by using an absolute path to the fontset.txt file to  
see if the relative path is the problem.

Then I would try using just one font in the list and see if you can  
get that working.  If it can find the arial font but not the arialbd  
then maybe that font file is corrupt.
