I tried that, but I'm still getting David's font from the link - and that's especially weird, because David emailed me his font privately. Here's a question - do .ttf fonts store the font name internally? I'd installed David's, but I'd tried renaming Dustin's as "runes.ttf", However, it may be that if "runes.ttf" is telling Font Viewer that the font is called "Bukhstav", Font Viewer is showing me the Bukhstav it already knows.
