Ok, so I think that defoma might help here, right?

If I make my application defoma-aware then it will be notified whenever
fonts are installed or removed from the system. Correct?

My next question is: When my application is first installed, how will it
find out about the fonts that are already installed on the system? If I
understand correctly, defoma will only help my app keep track of any
changes to fonts. Am I missing something here?

Thanks,

Marcus
