It may be necessary for us to specify TRUE for GetSystemFontCollection. However, we probably don't want to do that in the startup path. Additionally, we already do that in the settings editor code so I wonder why it doesn't get triggered. Maybe it's because UpdateFontList() doesn't get called again.
