| | Unusable Greek Fonts I'm using Win 7 Home Premium, 32bit. Recently upgraded from XP Pro. Now I can't get usuable Greek fonts on Printmaster 16, Calendar Creator 8.0 or Parsons Address Book Deluxe 6.0. I need these fonts, as I live in Greece. Thanks for any assistance that you can offer. |

| | Are you using the English version of Windows 7? The best way to get non-English fonts may be to use the Language Packs. Unfortunately, they are normally only available for Windows 7 Ultimate. (There may be hacks to install them on Home Premium, but I've never tried it.) I don't know whether that would be worth the price of an Anytime Upgrade, but it's an option. The Greek characters available in the Symbol font aren't sufficient for your needs? |

| | Thanks for the quick response. My keyboard seems to be acting normally, but acts up occasionally by seeming to do it's own thing. When this happens, I recycle & everything returns to normal |

| | I've considered an upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate, but certainly not until I know that the problem would be fixed. I just tried the Symbol font, but get gibberish with that, also. There are over 20 different Greek fonts in the Windows 7 package, including old reliables Times New Roman, Arial, Verana and New Courier. |

Maybe the Windows compatibility site: Windows 7 Compatibility: Software Programs & Hardware Devices: Find Updates, Drivers, & Downloads will help. I'm unfamiliar with any of the software that you listed, but I imagine that they may be too old to work properly with Windows 7. If so, I hope that either you can update them cheaply, or that you can run them in compatibility mode. |
