The complaining message you get is from a script in your Home stack.
It is a Stack Script - the message handler and functions are:

	function checkHCFont theFont pointSizes
	on checkForMissingFonts

You can either hack the function or the message handler to have it
ignore the sizes. It is _your_ Home stack after all :-).
