David,
Sorry to be such trouble but.... I unzipped and tried to install the four
fonts and got a message that Fixedsystem and Terminal were already installed
and I must uninstall them before installed updated.

Checked my font files and I have two Fixedsys:
Fixedsys (VGAFIX.FON) &
Fixedsys for the IBM 8514 (8514Fix.Fon)
and
Three Terminal:
Terminal (VGA850_0.Fon)
Terminal (VGAOEM.Fon) &
Terminal Font for the IBM 8514 (8514OEM.Fon)

Which ones do I uninstall?

Thanks for being so helpful,
Eileen

David,
Deleted Fixedsys (VGAFIX.FON) and installed the one you sent.
Still seeing the symbol font in my HP PhotoSmart Scanner.
Guess I am just going to put up with the problem unless you can think of
something else.
Thanks, Eileen

At least if you open NOTEPAD.EXE you can change the font in the pull-down menu.

Please do so !

But before you actually change the font, please take a moment and note the font presently
being used.

Please reply back with the NAME of the font (and the disk file name) that NOTEPAD was using
before you change it.

David,
In notepad the font was 'Symbol Regular'.
I changed it to Times Roman, closed it, and when I reopened it, it was Times
Roman. Does that mean it will stay? I also tried my scanner again, but it
still is using Symbol.

Thanks, Eileen

Pardon the butt-in, but has the system font been corrupted? It should be :
8514SYS.FON 9.39 KB (9,616 bytes) Modified Thursday, June 08, 2000, 5:00:00
PM. If anything else looks odd extract a new copy with MSCONFIG and see if
that helps. Otherwise kindly tell me to butt out.

Eileen:

Thank you for 'Symbol Regular' however what is the disk file name ?

I looked on my PC and could not find 'Symbol Regular'.

Do a search of the complete Registry on the text; Symbol Regular

Do NOT take any action but takle note of the full path to the key in the Registry and the
name of the key and please with that information.
