Lost fonts from iLife 06

i recently got my iMac out of the shop. they duplicated a lot of files so i went in to try to clean it up by deleting some. I saw two font folders and figured i only needed one. oop! i think i accidentally deleted the fonts that came w/ilife 06. now when i open iweb, i get the "missing font" message. in particular
- cracked
- handwriting-dakota
- palatino-roman
- portagolTCTT
there are probably others. i don't have the CD anymore. how can i retrieve these lost fonts w/o having to spend another $60 for ilife 06?

iMac G4 flatscreen, Mac OS X (10.4.3)

If they caused this problem for you, I'm sure they would likely fix it for you. I took my laptop in to be repaired once and it came back with OSX, iLife, and iWork already re-installed. It was so nice and clean, I decided to start fresh instead of restoring from my backup.

I'm not certain that all of those fonts were installed by iWeb, but I will check my own system later on. If I have any of the fonts, I will gladly try to get them to you.

I have the same problem you have with regard to the missing font message. Were you able to replace the fonts yourself or did you take it back to the shop that omitted them?

I did find this handy bit of info.

The 10.4 font list.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301332

I also found an iWork font list.

But haven't found an iLife font list.

Have you checked the Font Book application to see if they're there, but disabled?

I checked. They're not there. Thanks for the lists, though.

Did you find the missing fonts?
These are all iWeb fonts.
