    Times Font Conflict/Corrupt?! Displaying incorrect.

    Success! Great stuff! However... I cleaned my system fonts folder, which moved a load of fonts to my desktop in the folder 'FontsRemovedFromSystem 13/03/2008'. Nothing was labelled in all caps though... that folder contains folders 'Adobe Creative Suite 3', 'Apple iWork', 'Captials.dfont'...

    Leopard Up-to-Date Discs

    My discs still haven't arrived, however I have read some messages on the Apple Discussions regarding this.
