I still have a screenshot, see attachment. I had the impression this 
came from using a PC image vs. a Mac image (endian issue). IIRC 
correctly, the TTFonts had already been enabled in the image, but after 
transfering the image to the Mac it looked scrambled. Saving the image 
once solved it, because this rebuilds the font caches.
