Font size problem

[Guest Dan]

I had a problem with some Adobe Photoshop documents that wouldn't open. What

eventually made the problem go away was that I copied all the files in

C:\Windows\Fonts to a temporary folder and then deleted them all from

C:\Windows\Fonts. There were a few that the system would not allow to be

deleted, but almost all went away, including Arial. I then copied all the

font files back to C:\Windows\Fonts and my Photoshop file opened without

giving me the error message as previously.

 

Now I have a new situation that is a little annoying. Some of the dialog

boxes in some programs display with a bolder, larger font than before. For

example, in Adobe FrameMaker, in the Paragraph Designer and Font Designer

dialog boxes, all of the labels on tabs and next to input fields are this

larger, bolder font. It still looks like Arial, and I actually prefer it

larger and more bold for readability, but in some cases it means that text

doesn't fit in the dialog box or it's obscured by other objects. Any ideas on

what happened when I copied the font files back to their original location

and why the font change?
