That's a Mystery: 3 years ago when I bought my old computer, I was "computer
dumb". I don't understand where "Victorian" came from if it wasn't installed
with Office 2000, because if I'm not smart enough to load a font now, I
certainly wasn't then.
And, no, I did NOT know that I could get the product code. I bought my New
Inspiron without Office because I thought I could load it from my CD's. When
I found out I had lost the jewel case that had the code, I had to buy Office
2003, which is why I'm having this terrible learning curve. So, just for
giggles, how DO I get the code? Thanks MF

Even if you follow Graham's wonderful directions, you're not going to be
completely happy. Victorian LET is *not* a Microsoft-supplied font.
Also, has anyone told you the you *can* still get a product code for your
Office 2000 CD?

Thank you, Graham, but I think my printers are fine Here's more info:
I have an old laptop with Office 2000. My new laptop (Dell Inspiron 6000,
1gbRAM, good graphics card, XP Media Center) has Office 2003.
I have the installation CD for Office 2000, BUT NOT THE CODE, so they're
worthless. The FONTS folder on 2003 does not have, for example, "Andy",
"Allegro", "Victorian LET", and "Rockwell", among some fonts that I used
frequently on my old computer.
I am using two Konica Minolta laser printers, both of which were capable
of
printing all fonts I used on my old computer. I also have an Epson
Laserjet
300, which can print all the fonts on my old computer. I have a new Dell
922, which should be able to print everything, but I have not installed it
on
my old computer.
I don't believe the problem is PRINTERS; the fonts that came with 2003
simply do not include the fonts I want to use? How can I find them?
Can I transfer them from Old to New by ethernet cable ?
YOUR WEBSITE IS GREAT--I found a couple of things that will help me as I
learn to be a good newsletter editor!

If you still have the Office 2000 disc you can install any fonts it
contains. In any case merely changing Word 2000 for Word 2003 will not
remove any installed fonts. Are you sure that you have a default printer
selected that will actually print fonts? Word will only display fonts the
current printer is capable of using.

The "Install New Fonts" facility is worthless. It doesn't let you
FIND any fonts to load. Where are these fonts that we can install?
Also, why didn't the Office/Word 2003 version have as many fonts as
the Office/Word 2000? I WANT MY OLD FONTS BACK!

Whether or not fonts show as being available can be down to whatever
is set as the default printer.. also, one does not SAVE fonts to the
fonts folder.. one opens the fonts folder and uses the 'install new
fonts' facility..
