[python-win32] Problem accessing GetFontData in Windows API

Thanks for the tips.

Using that method I'm able to obtain the filename for about 75% of the fonts in my Windows directory, but I can't resolve fonts with names such as this:

- the font's name is Arno Pro. It shows up in font choosers with names like "Arno Pro", "Arno Pro Caption", "Arno Pro Display", etc.

- however, no such names appear in the Windows font directory/registry. This font appears as, for example, "ArnoPro-Regular", "ArnoPro-Caption", "ArnoPro-Display".

I don't imagine you can think of a way to obtain the file name for fonts with that sort of naming convention?

I have to leave now but I can post a sample app later.
