Jumps between letters/Fonts/Stitch highlighting

Hi - I've just upgraded from DG15 to DG17 and am trying to figure out some things.
When I manually kern lettering from my old fonts, it keeps adding jump stitches back in between the lettering. I have trim always on, and have even tried to force a trim with ^+, but as soon as I move a letter. the jump stitch comes back.
The reasoning for using the old fonts, is because two that I use on a regular basis I have not found in DG17 - Block 2 Compact and Copperplate. Have you deleted them from DG17?
Also, when using the stitch edit function, and jumping forward or backwards, the stitches no longer highlight if I'm going forward, or de-highlight as I go backwards. If I click on the screen, it highlights or de-highlights how far I've gone, but as I said, not as I go along anymore. Have I missed doing something?
Thank you for the help.

"Block 2 Compact" and "Copperplate" are both old-style fonts.
You can choose to display them by going to Tools > User Settings > Text > Display All Fonts
Then when you have a text segment selected you can change the Font Type to "Old embroidery fonts".

Thank you. I know they're old fonts and I can access them from 17m but the problem is the trim settings don't work with the old fonts in 17.
Any thoughts on the stitches not highlighting?
