Vista and font cache

Yup, it's still there!  C:\Windows\System32\FNTCACHE.DAT

However, it has never been a "font management scheme" but
rather a caching mechanism for the Windows font renderer.

Deleting that file and rebooting every so often apparently
"solves" the problem of missing runs of characters when
printing from FrameMaker.
