Only the "Big Box of Art" -- which I don't much like anyway.
When I look in Font Book, it only has one instance of the particular
fonts that are causing probs. Argh! I'm going to try uninstalling the
problem fonts, deleting them from the Classic fonts folder, then copying
from one of the other machines & re-installing.
Wish me luck!
