Post subject: Changing a font name
Archived from groups: microsoft>public>windowsxp>customize (more info?)

Here's my problem. I loaded a font called "Times and Times Again". The font
is an old fashed looking times style font. The problem is that when I display
web pages that use the "Times" font as the first in the font-family list, the
OS confuses that with the "Times and Times Again" font and it looks wonky. As
I really like using the "Times and Times Again" font when journaling heritage
scrapbook pages, I don't really want to remove it. I was hoping there was
some way to rename the font so that the OS doesn't mistake it for the "Times"
font.

I don't know of a way to rename a font without reauthoring it, which
I also don't know how to do. Smile

I think an easy solution is just to uninstall it not doing your
scrapbook work.
