Set registry settings to explicitly map the “Arial Narrow” and “Arial Narrow Bold” to other fonts

For Example: 

Set registry : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\FontSubstitutes

"MS Shell Dlg"="Microsoft Sans Serif"

"Arial Narrow"="Arial"

"Arial Narrow Bold"="Arial Bold"
