How do you remove an installed font? I performed the procedure to

Unfortunately, it was the wrong font, and I want to remove it. The
font palette delete process does not delete the font, and I have tried
physically removing the installed files in the PSFONTS directory,
but the font is still shown as an option, and indeed, I can still
select it.
Where are the fonts really stored, and how do I get rid of one of them?
Try the Registry Editor - regedit2.exe. Use the Edit menu's find and
find next to search the Registry for entries using the name of the font
that you installed and delete.
Regedit2 lives in \OS2\SYSTEM folder. Make a program object for it and
place the object in your Utility folder on the Desktop for the next time.

Thanks a Million!
Bill,
Thanks. That seemed to do it. There were four TTF files involved,
and it only showed two. Nevertheless, deleting them and rebooting
has made the whole font go away.
Thanks, again, and as you suggested, I have made an object of the
program -- just in case I need it again.
Bob
