MORE INFORMATION
Applications can request font information from UNIDRV.DLL for display
purposes. Rather than have UNIDRV.DLL check the WIN.INI file each time
for this information, it creates a list in a font summary file. This
file is changed every time you change cartridges in the driver,
add/delete soft fonts, and so on. The next time an application asks
for this font information, UNIDRV.DLL responds with this previously
generated list. The performance gain is directly proportionate to the
number of soft fonts installed.
