Anybody know why a font (Script.fon) that is installed in the
Fonts folder will show up in Wordpad but is not available in Word
2002? By not being available in Word, I mean it is not listed in
the Fonts dropdown menu of Word.

TIA,

George

Recent Word versions do not display fonts or use for printing that are not
printer fonts. That is to say, recent word versions do not list or use fonts
that are intended for the display only.

Fonts that exist as fon files are display fonts so Word does not list it for
printing use and will not use it for printing.
