I download a lot of fonts, that I keep in a separate folder, to use with PSP.
On one group of fonts, some of us with XP Pro can't read them. We get a
message that --gives the location of the file---ttf was not a valid font
file. People with other Windows programs can read them. I'm in the "My
Documents" folder when trying to read them. Every other font I've downloaded
I can see. Any ideas?

The name of the font(s) for starters.

Would you like to give the download URL so someone may test them?
Can you also be more specific about what program(s) in XP Pro cannot
read them and what are some "other Windows programs" that can?
