Bingo! Thanks a million!
Since I already had a boatload of Windows fonts located elsewhere, I
opted for your second suggestion, including the Java fonts in the xfs
config file. Seems to work like a charm. Thanks again!
I wonder if I missed this piece of information in the docs somewhere...
I find it difficult to believe that I'm the only person to have
encountered this.
List maintainer: It would be nice if this list archive had search
capabilities.
