Arial Black font stuck on italics

[TechSupport]

Using PPT 2007, the Arial black font is defaulting to italics. Tried turning
the italics on and off but that is not working. How can I get the Arial
black font to be normal?

Are you typing the text in a text box.
Do check if it is happening for Arial Black only.

Yes I was typing in a text box and it was only happening to the Arial Black
font. It also types in italics in word as well.

I get that too, once in a while, even in the Mac 2008 version. My typical
fix is to delete font caches and reboot. That, and I try to avoid Arial
Black.
