[mso] Re: downloading fonts in Word 2003

I have had that too ... Word not recognising new fonts straight away.  I
guess it's still a Windows [registry] issue ... in Windows 3.x all the fonts
available were listed in ... uhhh ... either win.ini or system.ini.  All
that stuff is now in the registry and if you manually copy .ttf files to the
Fonts folder, I don't think the registry gets updated until a restart.  One
good reason for using the Install function in the Fonts folder menu, lol.
