Font Navigator works with:
Windows 95
Windows 98
Windows NT 4.0
Windows 2000 or Windows XP
"Dual Boot" systems

Problem
Does Font Navigator work with Windows 98?
When I install or uninstall a font in Bitstream Font Navigator under Windows 98, my system crashes.

Solution
Bitstream Font Navigator has been successfully tested in Windows 98. If you install Windows 98 over an existing Windows 95 system with Font Navigator already installed, your system may crash periodically when you try to use Font Navigator to install or uninstall fonts. Rebuild the Font Catalog before using Font Navigator in Windows 98.

Problem
Does Font Navigator work with Windows 2000 or Windows XP?

Solution
Bitstream Font Navigator 3.0.1 has been successfully tested with Windows 2000 and Windows XP. Because these versions have more security features than previous versions of Windows, you should follow these recommendations:

Run the installation for Font Navigator while logged in with Administrator rights.
Run the installation again for each additional login name.
If you install Windows 2000 or XP over an existing Windows version with Font Navigator, rebuild the Font Catalog before using Font Navigator under Windows 2000 or XP.
NOTE: Font Navigator 2.x and 3.x cannot manage the CFF format of OpenType fonts.

Problem
Can I use Font Navigator on "dual boot" systems, where I can boot between two different versions of Windows?

Solution
You can use Font Navigator on a "dual boot" system if you install Font Navigator separately for each operating system on the computer. During installation, install Font Navigator into different folders for each version of Windows you have.
