DummyWord!

Hello, how do I copy/move a font which is showing in my control panel under
"font" to my font list in word?
 
If the font is correctly installed, it should be accessible in Word too. But
note that Word ignores fonts that aren't True Type.
 
Hi Stefan, thanks for your reply, the font that I am after is Script which,
as we know, is widely known. I can even use it in my emails but I can't seem
to link it with my word (struggling!)
 
As I wrote in my previous reply, Word only shows True Type fonts.
 
Actually, Word will also display PostScript Type 1 fonts and
printer-resident fonts, but it will not show screen fonts, of which this
Script is likely one.

DummyWord!, sorry about any confusion.

Suzanne, thank you for refreshing my memory! :-)
 
Good point. I believe the KB article needs to be updated. After all, it was
written for Word 97...
