AllMyRenderings Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 (edited) Hi PDN's 8-) I've searched high n low - this is (I guess) a Win10 question, but applies as I'm trying to eliminate a bunch of Fonts from the drop-down menu (not just PDN but Word, etc) so - yes - I did go to Control Panel - fonts - and for those "it will allow" to delete that I didn't wish to have - I was able to delete - (also went to detail view for Publisher, etc, which helps identify the ones Windows will allow to be deleted) okay... so 'then' I took for-ev-er (lol) (literally!) to arduously go through all of the ones (system fonts) to HIDE, like the Microsoft Office Symbol series of fonts, / the Jheng Hei, or Consolas, just those I do not use -- so I did "hide" them in Control Panel fonts.... but they are still on the drop down menu (?) (I mean who uses Lucinda Console?) haha... but most of the ones I chose to HIDE are still appearing (PDN and Word) - and I've exhausted google search which gives the "how-to" hide... but must just be me... as there's not search returns for "hidden fonts still showing" and every various of search terms... So beyond having followed the simple Hide/Show ... I'm wondering if there's anything more to do (?) -- I have re-started my computer a few times as well -- btw - the DK fonts are great - those are the ones I added and use 8-) Thanks for any notions as to how to prune down the font selection list ! ~Lisa.

IRON67 Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Maybe it's a special Win10 behavior, because here on Win 7 SP1 hiding a font works even without restarting the system. It works immediately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewDavid Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Same here @AllMyRenderings on a WIN10 up to date computer. Works like its supposed to. The obvious question is if you are up to date with all the updates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
