The information in this article applies to:
 
 - Microsoft Windows Update, used with:
    - Microsoft Internet Explorer version 4.0 for Windows 98 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
SYMPTOMS
========
 
If you install the Supplemental Web Fonts component, additional fonts will be
added to the Fonts folder in Control Panel. This font package contains some of
the fonts most used by Web designers, including:
 
 - Microsoft's Georgia font family
 
 - Microsoft's Trebuchet font family
 
 - Monotype's Monotype.com font
 
 - Adobe Corporation's Minion Web font
 
When you install these Web fonts, they may update older fonts on your system. For
this reason, the Supplemental Web Font component does not have an uninstall
feature, and you will not have an option to uninstall it using Add/Remove
Programs.
 
CAUSE
=====
 
This is by design. You may have existing documents using these fonts and
deleting them may affect those documents.
