Hello everyone and thanks for your help in advance. I am working on an
application that writes a GIF with text and font size that is passed
through a querystring. An example of this is located at:
http://www.kidsmedicalcare.com/KidsText.aspx?Txt=Hugh&Ft=26
The problem I am running into is that the font that is set is Dom Casual
BT. The problem that I am running into is that the application is not
generating a Dom Casual BT font in this example. However, the
application works fine on my test machine (Windows XP professional
running IIS). The server this application is running on is Windows 2000
server. I have verified that the Dom Casual BT font is installed on the
server (however, I am not sure if there is a trick to installing).
Additionally, I have checked in other applications on the server to see
if it can use this font and have verified that they can. I am not sure
why this application is not generating the proper font on this machine.
Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Hugh,
Did you install the font by copying across Windows shares to
SERVER\c$\WINNT\Fonts or a similar method? If you didn't do the install
through the explorer shell on the server computer (install via copy and
paste into the Fonts directory) then the font was not registered and placed
into the fonts loaded in memory. The easiest way to fix this would be to
reboot the server.

Some of the more relaxed Special Forces troops, who sometimes act like a
lethal version of the Peace Corps, also were antagonized by a recent order
from Bagram to shave their beards and wear at least a semblance of a U.S.
military uniform, instead of a combination of camping gear and Afghan tribal
garb.

Thanks for your response, however the reboot didn't correct the problem.
