Default Incomplete font list in Publisher Pro 2003

Hi all

I've been experiencing this same problem with some newly installed TT fonts
("not in your system" despite installing them in the control panel). I
assumed it was to do with having a printer that was incapable of handling
TrueType, but I realised that other existing TT fonts DO appear on the list.
Just none of the ones I installed. (These fonts were given to me as part of a
corporate fonts package. No one else uses Publisher though, and the fonts
seem to work for Word)

Anyone have any clue how to fix this?

Thanks in advance.

printer capable of handling TrueType fonts.


I would class this as a Publisher bug (or at least a quirk), as Publisher is
supposed to have removed printer dependence.

When you are creating a web page you will only have a limited choice of fonts on
the drop down. To change this option;
Format, Font, uncheck "Show only Web fonts."

....and if you are creating a web page and select non-web fonts, then they
they are converted to images which are not searchable by search engines.
