Office 2007 missing Arial Rounded font
I have Office 2007 Basic; my son has Office 2007 Educational version;
both Windows 7. Microsoft's says that Office 2007 has Arial Rounded, but it is missing on both PCs. Could not find where to install additional fonts from installation DVD. Could not find from Internet search. Tried Repair Install, this did not help. This is my first visit to this newsgroup. Any advice? |

Office 2007 missing Arial Rounded font
Please note fonts are dependent on the make and model of your
printer. If you have a laser printer with PCL5 or PCL6 and PS capability then you are likely to have most of the fonts on Office 2007. Please tell us what is the make & Model of your printer. hth ps: Peter Foldes is a convicted paedo using his sister to work for him as prostitute.

Any advice? For starters, ignore any venom-spewing trolls who reply to your posts. Their information isn't always trustworthy. And as to the font issue: According to this: http://www.microsoft.com/typography/...t.aspx?PID=148 Arial MT Rounded Bold is included in Office 2007, not Arial Rounded. If a document calls for one and you have the other, Windows may substitute for you, or it may not (especially since one's bold and the other isn't). Apart from that, some Office fonts are installed only if you choose certain options. I don't if Arial MT Rounded Bold is one of these or not, but if you look in Control Panel, Fonts you can see for yourself what's installed on your computer. |

According to this: http://www.microsoft.com/typography/...t.aspx?PID=148 Arial MT Rounded Bold is included in Office 2007, not Arial Rounded. Sorry, I was sloppy in identifying the font. We don't have either. Applications are warning about Arial MT Rounded Bold not being available, and offering to replace it with another font, which I do not want to do since I have documents going back many years which use it. If a document calls for one and you have the other, Windows may substitute for you, or it may not (especially since one's bold and the other isn't). It was the warnings that made me realize that the font was missing from my new PC. Apart from that, some Office fonts are installed only if you choose certain options. I don't if Arial MT Rounded Bold is one of these or not, but if you look in Control Panel, Fonts you can see for yourself what's installed on your computer. I know that it is not installed: I checked. I don't have every possible Office component installed, e.g. an oriental Office font. My new PC is a Dell and has an OEM version of Office Basic, and Dell did the install -- but it is not obvious to me that this font would rationally be tied to any component which is not installed. I suppose I could get the font from my old version of Office 2003, but it would not be the latest version of the font, I am sure. Any specific suggestions of where we can go from here? If the missing font is tied to a specific component, it would be helpful to know which. Maybe I'll have to try Dell support, but user communities are usually more helpful than big corporations. It may seem a minor issue, but as I said earlier, I have a *lot* of old documents that use it, and font substitution does not always have pleasant consequences. |

We don't have either. OK, no problem. Applications are warning about Arial MT Rounded Bold not being available, and offering to replace it with another font, which I do not want to do since I have documents going back many years which use it. And who wants to deal with all the possible problems that font substition might cause? With you 100% I suppose I could get the font from my old version of Office 2003, but it would not be the latest version of the font, I am sure. Have a look he http://www.microsoft.com/typography/....aspx?FMID=918 According to that, they're both v 1.51, so you're probably good to go if you've still got the version from 2003 around. And the version change since '97 has been from 1.50 to 1.51 I'd bet the only change was the addition of the Euro symbol, or possibly the change from a plain TT font to OT/Opentype format. Any specific suggestions of where we can go from here? If the missing font is tied to a specific component, it would be helpful to know which. I distinctly remember it being so in a past Office version but can't for the life of me remember which version or which app added it. Ah well. History now. IAC, I'd say installing the one from Office 2003 is all you need to sort things out. Maybe I'll have to try Dell support, but user communities are usually more helpful than big corporations. It may seem a minor issue, but as I said earlier, I have a *lot* of old documents that use it, and font substitution does not always have pleasant consequences. |

Tried Repair Install, this did not help. This is my first visit to this newsgroup. Any advice? Arial Rounded Bold is included on both of my installation CDs (I don't have Office Basic or Educational but I do have Home and Student and also Small Business Edition that I checked.) You would either need to do a repair install of Office and have it include all the fonts or you can do this: Place your DVD in the drive and then start Windows Explorer. Ensure that you can see extensions for known file types (if you need help setting that up let us know.) Browse down to the folder on the disk to the proper cab file. Now the cab file and folder it is stored in will be named differently for each version of Office but for Home and Student the folder is named "HomeStudentr.WW" and the cab file that the fonts are located in is called "HomeSrWW.cab" My Small Business version's folder is "SmallBusinessr.WW" and the cab file is "SMBrWW.cab" so you should be able to figure out which folder and cab file your TTF fonts are located in. Once you find the folder and cab file click on the cab file. You should see a listing of all the enclosed files within the cab file. You are looking for this file "ARLRDBD.TTF" When you find that file right click on it. Left click Extract and tell the next window where you want to place the file. I would use the Windows\Fonts folder. When the font is extracted to that folder it may automatically be installed. If not you can use the add fonts to add the font to the computer. You only need to extract onto one computer and can then simply copy the file to the other computer and install it. Hope this helps, let us know. |

Which does not mean it is not in one of them: it just means that I could not find it. I eventually "fixed" the problem by copying over the font from my older, Office 2003 system. That was version 1.50 instead of Office 2007's version 1.51. I'll have to be satisfied with this: still, I find it extremely puzzling to find a font missing not only in Dell's OEM Office, but also in a copy of Office sold by a major computer store. |
