I see what the problem is. It seems TTFileDescription is not able to find
the fonts because it looks in

FileDirectory default directoryNamed: 'fonts'.

and the default directory in the etoys-dev image is not the same
directory where we put the image. If you move the fonts directory into the
default directory, it works.
Should we change TTFileDescription to look for the fonts directory into
"SmalltalkImage current imagePath" just move the fonts to the default
directory?
I would prefer changing TTFileDescription because the default directory is
more easily accesible by the users than the image directory and we do not
want the fonts to get lost due to an user's mistake.
