Missing Font Names

[Guest]

I have seen a number of discussions about a font not appearing on the font
list, but I have installed fonts that appear as a blank line alphabetically
on the menu. If I select it to use in a document, it then appears, but not
initially. Is there a way to add the name?

This suggests a poorly design font whose binary file does not contain the
font name in the expected place. Short of editing the font with a font
editor, I don't think there's anything you can do.

I am experiencing the same problem on word 2003 and it works fine on Apple
macs with word so i dont think your answer is correct. In my case it is the
light and extra bold fonts which come up blank.
