This article was previously published under Q84991

SUMMARY

Windows Write fails to correctly display the WingDings font on the screen when certain printers that have a large number of device fonts, such as the Panasonic KX-P 1124, are installed.

CAUSE

Write tries to enumerate the entire set of fonts available to it (TrueType and device fonts). If there are more than 50 TrueType and device fonts, Write fails to correctly display the fonts.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows version 3.1. We are researching this problem and will post new information here as it becomes available.
