What Fonts does Outlook Use?

[Guest]

I'm running Outlook 2003 under Windows XP. I have a large number of fonts
installed, and to make life easier, I found a font manager and uninstalled
those I rarely use.

But I apparently uninstalled some fonts that Outlook uses, because it
started substituting other fonts. In some cases the substituted fonts work
OK (but look strange); in other cases, particularly in its pop-up windows,
the substituted fonts are bigger and bolder than the originals — sometimes
overfilling the windows.

Can anybody tell me what fonts Outlook uses by default so that I can ensure
that I have all the proper fonts installed?

Thanks!

I have changed mine to suit my tastes and don't recall the
default. However, you can set your fonts to your pleasure.
Choose Options from the Tools drop down menu. Click on the
Mail Format tab. Under Stationery and Fonts, click on the
Fonts button. Here you can specify the fonts to be used.
