Hey everyone,

I reinstalled my OS last week and reloaded Office 2003. Well, today I
have a problem. I can not change my fonts. The screen shows Times
New Roman. If I click the drop down to change the font name, I only
have options that say device name 12 pt.

I checked in control panel and I do have all the regular fonts. I am
running WIndows XP. Does anyone know what is causing my problem?
Thanks.
 
Select a real printer (or at least a printer driver) as the default printer.
You'll see only a few fonts if the default printer is set to the Generic
pseudo-"printer" or something like that. See
