I have installed WordPerfect Suit 7.0 for Windows 95 and now
I can't use the WordPerfect TrueType Fonts like
WP Greek Courier etc. They seem to be properly installed, but when I try
to
use them I only get blank boxes.

Can anyone help me and tell me how to fix the problem?

Thomas

I also tried to read the original fonts at the WordPerfect Suit 7 CD, but I
also got only blank boxes. If there is no "bug" at the CD, than the problem
should be at my system (WIN 95).
Can anybody help me?

the "bug" may be your printer. Check to see if you have the proper
default printer selected and if it supports these fonts. Also, there is
a limit to how many fonts you can install.

Maybe your WP character fonts have become corrupted. Reinstall
them with the following steps:
1. Close WordPerfect.
2. Click on Start | Setting | Control Panel | Fonts
3. Delete all the fonts that start with WP
4. Select File | Install New Fonts....
5. Under Drives, select the CD-Rom drive. (The WordPerfect 8 CD must
be in the drive.)
6. Under the Folders tab open the \Corel\Appman\wkswpi8\Fonts\Corelreq
directory.
7. Choose "Select All" and click on OK.
