Hm, I'm not sure whether I have the TTF versions anymore. The OTF 
versions belong to the full Arial pro-package. - I'll have to look 
through my font archive disk to see, if the TTF versions should be there 
somewhere.

Most of my fonts are now either OTF or OTT - all managed by Linotype 
FontExplorer. A few are still TT/TTF but these are some old very special 
graphical and ornamental fonts...

One of my standard maintenance procedures is regularely - apprx. once 
every month - to delete cache files such as font cache and system cache 
files. I've found that this keeps performance at it's best. Last 
cleaning was last week...

Cheers, Erik Richard
