I just installed Galactic Civilizations II: Dread Lords on my Dell Dimension 9100, and the font for bank gothic (BankGthd.ttf) is showing up as weird characters. The other fonts are normal. I restarted and reinstalled and put on the patch and I still get the same problem. I do have postscript fonts of bankgothic already installed, but I don't know what the problem is.
