(Look in control panel / File Explorer options / View / Hide protected operating<br>

<br>
- might be . . .<br>
<br>
The other problem that is looming is; Microsoft have been figuring out how to<br>
make more money out of the fonts they created.<br>
<br>
I note with the latest Win10 update; some fonts have been "withdrawn" - I got<br>
caught out with a couple I have used in a bit of artwork that suddenly didn't<br>
open after the update.<br>
<br>
Trajan Pro was one of them! - hence I tell you all this stuff - it isn't quite a<br>
tanget as you imagine . . .<br>
<br>
The pesky little monkeys had wanted me to pay £49 on <a href="http://fonts.com" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">fonts.com</a> to get them back<br>
. . . fortunately I have a machine available that still had Win7 on it and all<br>
the fonts - so I snatched 'em back . . . no doubt Bill Gates will do something<br>
sneaky about that next time round.<br>
<br>
But as you say; if they show up in LibreOffice and not in Scribus . . . that is<br>
odd; but then Scribus may have a slightly better font management system and has<br>
"phoned home to Momma" only to be told these fonts are out of license.<br>
<br>
Trajan Pro was definately the one that went pop for me.<br>
<br>
Blame Bill. Cheeky blighter is telling us we have to keep up our overseas aid<br>
budget and Microsoft are getting ready to make more money out of Windows 10 than<br>
the entire aid budget for the whole UN!<br>
<br>
It's is going to be an endless series of pop up adverts all over the screen from<br>
here on.<br>
<br>
Unless you rent - at a huge sum every month - the soon to be announced "advert<br>
free" version<br>
<br>
Time to start learning linux.<br>
