OK, I see now; the M$ fonts have a different name on your system :^(((
If you have a few hours, then please correct and extend the file

        progs/fonts/fonts-truetype.scm

so that it works for you. Next add missing entries in

        progs/menus/menu-format.scm

After that, all fonts should work. Finally, you may send me
the corrections of the two above files and I will try to integrate them.

Thanks, Joris

P.S.: if someone wants to write a real font selection system or
plug-ins for standard programs which do that, then this would be
appreciated... I will not have time for this in the near future.
