Well, I tried setting my font directory to my system font folder, but
POV won't check inside font suitcases, and when I take the fonts out of the
suitcase, and try to access them directly, I get a message "Cannot locate
font table tags" or some such.

    So appearantly, whatever format my system fonts are in, it is not one
that POV understands.

    Thanks for the help.
