Hi Tony,

Thanks for your trouble. I have taken your suggestion and placed
"Bitstream Vera Sans" at the head of the CSS list. Could I trouble you
for one more look at the page with this font? After this I think the
problem is mostly solved, just the hassle of actually typing the stuff
:-)

Thanks very much for your trouble,

Andrew.
