    Default Arial Font - Windows 2000 - Being replaced with squares - MX

    Hi

    We tested our product on Windows 2000 and the (non-embedded) Arial font was
    replaced with funny squares ie none of the characters worked. We selected
    Arial because everyone has it. This machine has it. Multiple sizes didn't
    work.

    Can anyone explain this? It is a very big issue to us obviously. It works
    fine on XP systems.

    David.
