Re: Opentype font file causes Windows to restart.

The problem seems to be only with W2000 and WXP. W2000 with SP3 bluescreened with STOP 0x00000050, where WXP with SP1 
just rebooted without even a bluescreen. W98 or WNT don't seem to be affected.

Nope, I tried this: read

erence/properties/fontface.asp

Embeded fonts are of a different filetype (eot or ote)
Maybe the same bug can be embedded in this filetype, but you'd first have to
figure out what's triggering this and reproduce it in a eot or ote file.
