How do I shorten the list of recently used fonts

The list of recently used fonts contains several fonts I have NEVER used and
I would like to remove them from the list. How do I do this? I am using
Word 2007.

Thank you.

You can get rid of the MRU font list but you need to edit the Registry to do
it. Exit Word and in the Registry navigate to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Word\Options

Right-click in an empty area in the right pane, click New/String Value. Name
the new value NoFontMRUList. Once named, double-click the value to open it
for editing and type a 1 (numeric one) in the Value data text box. To return
to turn the MRU font list back on, either change the value data to 0 (zero)
or delete the NoFontMRUList value.

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for
assistance by email cannot be acknowledged.
