I believe that I read someplace that not all fonts will import into SCAL.

Once fonts are installed in the Windows folder, they will show up in the Library.

I don't know what you have for an OS (Vista or XP) but in Vista I have to have the fonts INSTALLED on my computer before they show up in SCA... not just in my fonts folder. Some people have said a font manager program works, but I don't have thay many fonts so I've just installed the ones I want available to SCA.

I am using Vista. Some fonts I had to install in order for them to work in SCAL. Others seem to do fine if I only open them and leave them on the desktop while I open SCAL.

I don't know why that is - it just is.

If I recall correctly someone else posted that you must make sure you have your font 'open' before you start SCAL.
