Has to to with Anca construction font.

5 fonts:
Anca Basic.ttf (no problem here)

Anca Medium.ttf
Anca Marker1.ttf (recognized erroneously as Medium)
Anca Marker2.ttf "
Anca Marker3.ttf "

However after I install one of these four I cannot install another,
because each Anca MarkerX.ttf file appearantly contains Anka Medium

So... I edited the files with Fontforge and changed Medium to Light (for instance) everywere, even in the Penose listing.
Yet, system still says that each files contains Medium (which is simply not true - all files are different :-)


In this window (and subsequent tabs) I guess I omitted all MEDIUMS...

Arrrggghhhhh

But I have solved this
1) convert the font to SVG
2) SVG can be edited since it is plain text (and nerds love this)
3) convert back to ttf/otf

But fontforge let me down :-(

I have the same problem with Paris (La Goupil) and Paris (Moshik Nadav), I think it will solve renaming and saving the font in Font Creator but I haven't tried it yet.
