Actually, it is a feature of win95 that if, after you copy whatever fonts
you want to the \windows\fonts directory, you "look" at that directory with
explorer, it will "automagically" install any font found there. Much
easier!

Is it necessary to install the fonts through the Control Panel or can
the fonts simply be copied to the C:\WINDOWS\FONTS directory ?
