Hi,

Upon opening a Quark document, a missing font was reported. I checked to see of the font was loaded and it was. In Quark, I used the font utility to replace all instances of the font with the same font. Quark crashed. So, I figured I would reinstall the font but I cannot delete the existing one. In the fonts window it shows as a zero-kilobyte file.
I get a message: "Cannot delete file: Cannot read from the source file or disk."

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Henry
 
Henry;
Sounds like the font utility hammered the file header.

Thanks Ed,

This does not look like a fun process. I'll give it a go and get back to you.

Regards,
