I have 18 Frutiger fonts in my Fonts folder but when I opened Microsoft Word
2002, there's only 6 in the font list. I've checked the printer settings,
installed different type of printers, reinstalling Microsoft Word but nothing
worked. The rest of the Frutiger fonts just won't appear in Microsoft Word
(or any other Office application).

Any suggestion?
 
By any chance are the missing ones for Bold and Italic?

Hope this helps.

Click to expand...

Microsoft word only lists the primary family member. If there are
bold, italic, and/or bold-italic variants available, MSWord will use
them when you select Bold or Italic with either the toolbar buttons or
text properties.

Microsoft products don't recognize SOME font families if styles other
than Bold and Italic are used with the same primary name, but that's
probably not what you're seeing.
 
Thanks Doug, I double clicked the fonts and the Truetype Fonts are indicated
as the six that appears in the font list.

But apart from Bold, Italic and Bold Italic there's a few 'Black' in the
list as well. It seems that it's slightly different than the normal Bold.
