Replace lost fonts

My computer recently crashed, and I had to re-install everything, including
my Office XP. When I completed installing and updating, I had very few fonts
listed in Word. I tried to add them using the Control Panel, but the fonts
there are also very limited. I'm specifically looking for my
calligraphy-style fonts so that I can create layouts for my wedding
invitations, response cards, and programs. Please help!!
 
Unfortunately that doesn't help...The fonts that I lost were compatable with
this printer (hpdeskjet 940c). I still use the ThinkPad A30 that I got fall
2003 from Wake Forest University; I'm wondering if the extra fonts just
weren't available from the software re-install disks we were given...The
programs that I reinstalled are Windows XP and Office XP and I thought these
products had a larger range of fonts that came with the programs inately.
Was I wrong??
 
To see what fonts come with Microsoft applications, see
http://www.microsoft.com/typography/fonts/default.aspx. But most HP printers
(especially DeskJets) do come with a slew of fonts, which will be on the
install CD.
