Yeah, I've heard that said before. But I don't think ALL those fonts are critical to Windows; things like Comic Sans are just plain stupid! And I'll NEVER need all those Chinese and other foreign fonts! MainType's list of System fonts does not include Comic Sans or those Chinese and other foreign f...

I only have 2900 fonts, 597 installed....

It's Anetha Faith Signature. But a LOT of other fonts are the same way. They work fine in Illustrator and Photoshop, but not on MainType, and not in Powerpoint.

The preview for a lot of fonts, is cutting off the bottoms of the letters that go below the line. It's mostly handwritten script fonts. I'm attaching an example.
