I had to reinstall WinME, (I know, don't get me started), and then reinstall all my
other programs, one of which is Picture It publishing. After I did that, and open
it, all the program menus show up blocks instead of letters, and some Googling tells
me this is a corrupted system font, Marlett. I did the restore as per the
directions,
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;[LN];134861
deleted the cache file, reinstalled the program and the menus are still messed up.
Any ideas? I was getting close to 1000 fonts, the limit, so I moved some of my own,
100 or so, off into another folder, didn't seem to help, guess this is why: "If a
TrueType font file is located in a folder other than the Fonts or the System folder,
the full path to the font is included in the registry, using up more space in the key
and reducing the number of fonts you can install."
So other than delete hundreds of fonts I may need (want).....?
