Running Word97 on Win98SE
I have seen in some applications where, when dropping down the menu of available fonts, the font NAMES are displayed in the font itself. Is there a "switch"/option setting that would allow me to turn this capability ON (if it exists) in Word97?
Thanks!

This feature was introduced in Word 2000. There are third-party utilities
that provide the functionality in earlier versions (try www.wopr.com), but
they cause a rather heavy load on the processor/graphics card.
