Hello, Chris Game.

 

I *think* I may have answers to your questions:

 

Q1: Why the names of some of the fonts in MS-Word and other apps

begin with "@" but the Fonts folder in \Windows has no file with the

same name?

A1: I guess the "@***" fonts show up because they're encoded differently

than the "***" fonts.

 

Q2: Why some fonts cannot be deleted from the \Windows folder,

although they don't seem to be particularly essential to Windows

(e.g. batang, dotum, gulim,...)?

A2: "\Windows" you say? Or you mean "\Windows\Fonts"? Maybe they cannot be

deleted because they are Read-Only or Vista denies access to the "\Windows"

folder. I don't know exactly.

 

Q3: If there is a better freeware utility than AMP Font Viewer for

managing collections and uninstalling unwanted fonts in Vista. I

keep having probs with this despite installing in a non-system area!

A3: From where am I supposed to know? o_O
