The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Multimedia Stravinsky for Windows, version 1.0 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

In the lower right corner of the Stravinsky screen there is a ^K (K with an
accent above it) character where there should be an arrow (triangle pointing
right). Clicking the ^K character advances you to the next screen, just as
clicking the arrow would.

CAUSE
=====

The program is using the ANSI 0157 character of the V1 Lucida Sans font
(v1sp.fon) for this character. If v1sp.fon is not the correct version or is
corrupt, you can get the wrong character for 0157, such as the ^K.

RESOLUTION
==========

To correct the problem, remove the V1 Lucida Sans font and reinstall it from the
\STRAV\MSSTP\SHARED directory of the Stravinsky CD. Make sure that when you
remove the font you delete its font file (v1sp.fon) from the hard disk.

Steps to remove the font are discussed below for Windows 3.x and Windows 95. Use
the appropriate steps for your operating system. For more information about how
to perform this task in Windows, see your Windows printed documentation or
