it seems to hang up on registering fonts (animals1.ttf, etc).
Any tips on resolving this ?
First of all: you can use TrueType fonts with CorelDARW 6.0 without problem. But remember that there was two kind of fonts: "typographies" and "symbols". The symbol fonts (such as animals.ttf) was used for the special character docker, Ctrl+F11
On the Options menu (Ctrl+J) you can specify if you want to use "symbol fonts" as symbols or as fonts
