extraits :

Q Why are the 'WGL4' font files so large? Oh, and what does WGL4 mean
anyway?

A The files are large because they contain more characters than ordinary
fonts. These fonts include the full Windows Glyph List 4 (WGL4) character
set. This character set contains 652 characters and covers multiple writing
systems including Western, Central, and Eastern European, as well as
characters required by Greek and Turkish.
[...]


Q How do I access these additional Greek, Central European, Cyrillic, Baltic
and Turkish characters?

A If you are using Windows 95, you need to activate 'Multilanguage Support'.
[...]
Installing Multilanguage Support, adds an extra button to the Windows 95
task-bar. Use this button to switch between the different character sets as
required.
