Word 2003 - Fonts Issue

Hi,

I'm not sure wether this is the correct group for my question, so forgive me
if I have misposted this message.....

I'm running Office 2003 under Windows Vista Home Premium.

I decided to set up a signature for my e-mails using Word 2003. In the
signature formattimg box, the drop-down list of fonts only listed:
Device Font 17 cpi
Device Font 12 cpi
Device Font 10 cpi

I eventually exited the signature and decided to delete the signature from
the signature list (so
now I have no signatures).

The result is that, when I use Word, it only displays the above three fonts
in the drop-down list. Prior to this, I had all fonts available.
I have verified that the fonts are still in the fonts directory and that if
I use Excel 2003, fonts are listed in the font drop-down list as I would
expect to see in Word.

Does anyone know what has gone wrong and how I can get back to the full list
of fonts, as Word is useless in its present form?

Many thanks,

Martin
