When using Windows XP & Msft Word and listings different fonts, a desired font TOUJOURS is listed. However, when I go to Control Panel, FONTS, "TOUJOURS" is not listed. There is a listing, however, for many fonts with name "TT005m" or starting off with '" TT " followed by different numbers. How can I learn which font in the Control Panel's font folder is TOUJOURS? best, Aaron

I have tried restoring the system to before the installation of the new driver, but to no avail. I think that maybe reactivating Windows or changing the activation key could help, but these options are not available in safe mode or in the recovery panel of …
