233106	2004-04-30 06:21:00	Am I right in thinking that all the fonts that a program like Word would use are or have to be installed in the C:\Windows\fonts folder? Is it right that one has to limit the number of files in this folder to less than 400, I believe, to ensure good system performance? At the moment I have 570! I have Windows ME.	ssssss (2100)

233108	2004-04-30 07:16:00	Thanks a lot Metla, that is just the right info I needed. As a matter of interest can you tell me where Postscript Type 1 fonts come into the equation? I notice I have a folder called c:\psfonts . It seems to be associated with Adobe. But do those files get stored under the same registry key as mentioned in your article, counting towards the total allowable number of fonts? Or do they have a different allowable limit of their own?	ssssss (2100)
