[mso] Re: Font Styles in Word 2002

All programs (not just Word) will use any fonts you have in your Windows
Fonts folder.  Go to your Windows Control Panel and double click on Fonts.
In that Window, go to the File menu and choose Install New Font ... Then
browse to find the font you downloaded.  Once it's in the Windows Fonts
Folder, it will appear in all your programs.  At least, that's if my memory
is serving me well .... I know Word 2003 is pickier about non-truetype
fonts, but I believe Word 2002 would allow them. 

Maybe I'm wrong tho.... Maybe the truetype restriction started with Office
2002?

Subject: [mso] Font Styles in Word 2002

Hello All,

How to add fonts for use in Word?

I copied some text from a PDF document, and am now viewing it in a new
document I created in Word 2002.  Word identifies the font in some selected
text, but when I open the Font window, that font style is not listed as an
option.  In this specific case, the font is called "Futura-Condensed".  I
found a site that offers this font in a downloadable file.  My question is:
how do I store this file and make it available in the font window within
Word
so that I can select it as desired in any future documents.

Related question:  Word did identify the font style.  Does that mean the
font
is already on my PC?  If so, where is it and how do I make it available to
Word?

Thanks for the help.

Ray Shapp
