In a fully updated 3.1 image, I ´try to install a Truetype font via ...

 "TTFontReader
  installTTF: 'c:\winnt\fonts\arial.ttf'
  asTextStyle: #Arial
  sizes: #(24 60)"

So far, so good. However, as soon as I try to actually put the font to use (by clicking to the System Font menu entry), I get a "Bad BitBlt arg (Fraction?)" error as soon as the font selection menu is about to be displayed. If I proceed, nothing happens.

BTW, is there any other way to get Truetype fonts into Squeak? All the methods I've tried (as described on this ML and the Swiki) either give errors or a obsolete. Andreas Raabs TTF-to-file-in converter produces Smalltalk code for old Squeaks &c. 

Will is this font issue destined to remain my single biggest Squeak annoyance forever?

Best regards,
-- Chris
