Hello,
I'm working on coredraw x3 and when I try and use one of my installed fonts such as LHF Lincoln it's in the drop down menu but once I try and change text to the LHF lincoln font the sample text goes blank. When I find the LHF font in the drop down menu it doesnt show an example of the font style like the rest of the fonts I have installed. I tried to reinstall but no luck. Any font I have installed that doesn't show a preview of the font, I can't use. Most of them are OTF fonts but I have other OTF fonts that work fine. Any ideas as to why a font in my font list shows up but goes blank when I try and apply the font style to some text?
Thank you for your help!!!

Are they Corel's font?
Who build them?
Hello:
I just installed Corel X4 today, and had the same problem (runnning Windows XP, 1024x768). The only fonts that would display in my drop-down were my Type 1 fonts. My immediate solution was to go to "Tools/Options/Workspace/Text/Fonts..." and disable "Show flyouts..." and "Use font to display font name..."
It cured the display problem in my drop-down, and displayed the font selection in my sample font on the page, which allows me to work.
As a test, I intalled X4 on my laptop (Windows Vista) and there was no problem.
Initially, I thought the problem might be that many of my fonts are not in "Windows/Fonts" and are accessed by pointer files, but this does not seem to be the case.
