Quick Question
In netscape when you want to change fonts it lists all the fonts
available on the system
Internet Explorer seems to only list a few
Why?
Browsering the Registry doesn't show anything special, so where does
MSIE pick up it's list of fonts?

IE probably only shows you proportional/monospaced fonts. Netscape is probably allows you to use all fonts. mike | |||||

My IE shows all fonts... (at least all TryType fonts).
What other font types are there besides monospaced and proportional?

What version of IE?
Mine (V3.01b 4.70.1215) doesn't
For example I want to use MS-LineDraw as my fixed width font however
I only see Courier New and Lucida Console as options.
I have gone as far as manually editing the Regstriy and have
substituted MS LineDraw for courier new, and it refuses to use it.
I can find no place in the registry that tells msie what fonts to use
outside of the 1215 area...
Any futher ideas?
