If FFI is present, then FreeTypeFontProvider gets the windows font folder path with an API call. see FreeTypeFontProvider>>getWindowsFontFolderPath If FFI is not present, then FreeTypeFontProvider>>guessWindowsFontFolderPath is executed, which attempts to guess the fonts folder location. To do this it checks to see if c:\windows\fonts, d:\windows\fonts, e:\windows\fonts, etc. exist. Now, here is the curious thing... On my Vista computer, the D: drive is a DVD drive. If I boot Vista with no disk in D: and evaluate the following in a workspace... (FileDirectory on: 'd:\windows\fonts') existsthen it answers false without prompting me to insert a disk. But, if I put a disk in the D: drive, look at its contents in Windows Explorer, then remove the disk and close the drive door; and evaluate the same expression... Now Windows prompts me to insert a disk into D:. If I cancel the Windows prompt, then the expression again answers false.
