SUMMARY
=======

Foresight Resources Corporation's Drafix CAD for Windows versions 1.0, 1.1, and
1.11 place a font entry and a section entry in the WIN.INI file.

The font entry makes an extra 16 fonts available to Windows applications. To
disable the Drafix CAD fonts, start Control Panel, choose the Fonts icon, and
remove the "frc fonts" line.

MORE INFORMATION

Drafix CAD versions 1.0, 1.1, and 1.11 place entries in the WIN.INI file to make

fonts.

Below is an example of the WIN.INI entries that the 1.0, 1.1, and 1.11 versions
