Default How to identify a font

The font name should be shown in the Font box on the Formatting toolbar. If
the font is not installed on your machine, Word will substitute a different
font to represent it, but the font name will still be displayed. You can
find out what font Word is using as a substitute on the Compatibility tab of
Tools | Options.
