Hi David,

I have a copy of Windows that I bought a year or two ago, but never really
used it, as I preferred to use Linux.

Got it just in case I needed the license, I guess now I can put it to use.

Me paying for the Windows copy should include the fonts, right?

It's working now, and showing the fonts. Thanks a lot :-D

Now all that I have left is to get the characters to attach, and I tried
using the usp10.dll file from windows, but the characters are still
detached.

Something else I'm missing?

Regards and thanks again for the help :-)
