 8. Known problems
 -----------------

 Sorry, but there's no perfect Software (believe me).

 - Some fonts may not be removable from ABC 95. This is due to the 
   fact, that they are improperly installed by the setup program of 
   certain applications.
   To remove such a font, use the Windows 95 "Fonts" Shortcut in 
   Control Panel which can remove every font.

 - ABC 95 is not (yet) able to restore a removed font from the 
   Recycle Bin.
   To restore a font from the Recycle Bin, follow these steps:

   1. Open the Recycle Bin.
   2. Select the font to be restored.
   3. From the "File" menu select "Restore".
   4. Double click the "Font" Shortcut in Control Panel. 

   The font will automatically be reinstalled by Windows 95.
