About font installation:
The easiest way of installing fonts are to put them in the Fonts folder but you don't have to.
You can actually put the fonts anywhere as long as you then register them.
On a NT based system (NT/2000/XP) they are registered in:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts
Just add a new string value with the name of the font and with the path to the font file as the data.

Windows 98 (and probably 95 and ME): HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Fonts

And my COMCAT.DLL file is version 5.0. I just right clicked on it and checked in the Version tab.
