New Fonts defaulted to Arial

I downloaded a pretty authentic looking matrix font (google: mcode15) so I could try and use it for an Matrix screensaver.

I put it into the appropriate folder and tested it in notepad and it worked. However, when I tried using it in Turing it didn't work. The text that I typed using the custom font showed up as Arial. I tried the F10 font help section and used the example program that populates a list in the run window of all of the available font on my system, and it detected it just fine.

Any ideas?

Maybe the list had to be repopulated. I wonder what happens if you call Font.StartName before trying to use your font?
