XP and Vista Fonts in Word
I had to buy a new computer recently, as mine gave up on me. The new one has
Vista installed-the old one was XP. When using XP, I used a font called 'technical' a lot, when using 'Word' but Vista doesn't list this font. I have looked in the font folder and it isn't there. Took a look at some websites but can't seem to find it. Also am not sure which are good sites for downloading fonts. Would be grateful for any advice. Thanks. -- D.T. |

XP and Vista Fonts in Word
That font has never been included by Microsoft with any program or operating
system. http://www.microsoft.com/typography/fonts/default.aspx You must have installed it with a non-MS program. Time to get out those CDs. (I'll be doing the same thing this weekend.) -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] ~~~~~ How to ask a question http://support.microsoft.com/KB/555375 "Di" wrote in message news  I had to buy a new computer recently, as mine gave up on me.

XP and Vista Fonts in Word
Thanks JoAnn. Haven't a clue where it came from - and of course many of my
software programs don't work on Vista. So it's a matter of finding a new favourite font. Pity. It was a good one. -- D.T.

JoAnn,

JoAnn,
I wouldn't either. I used that piece of (euphemism) junk for only 15 days then I threw it away.

Technical is Corel's clone of the Linotype font named Tekton. The OP's
copy might have come with CorelDRAW or with WordPerfect. You can download Technical from http://eknp.com/php/fd.php?f=technical, although I suspect it's a copyright infringement. Tekton is available commercially from http://www.linotype.com/49178/tekton...c7f26f7f 101b. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.
