Rather than copying the font files, you can just tell POV-Ray where to
find them. Add this line to your master povray.ini file ("Edit master
POVRAY.INI" in the "Tools" menu).

Library_Path="C:\WINDOWS\Fonts"

When POV-Ray can't find a file in the current directory, it searches for
it in the Library_Paths.
