Default OpenType Fonts in Word

My understanding is that current versions of Word are not able to use the
advanced features of OpenType, so in fact they are treated the same as
TrueType. Sorry.

Does anyone know what (if any?) OpenType features Word 2003 (SP2)

supports?

I mean, it lets me use OpenType fonts, but is it doing *anything* with the
their advanced typography support? Does it do any glyph substitutions?
Or does it just treat them as if they were plain old TrueTypes?
