To All, In Office 2003 Word, an author sent me a DOC file incorporating a font that was not installed on my PC. When I selected that text, the window in the Formatting toolbar showed the name of the font style the author had used. I was not aware that I did not have that font style installed. The version of the document on my PC defaulted to Courier without any warning or indication that I noticed. Does Word give any indication when it is using a default font in place of one that is not available? If Word doesn't give an explicit warning, is there a way to query the DOC file to see if it wants any missing fonts? This is on a Win7 64-bit Professional PC. Thanks for the help.
