Stuck with Times New Roman in Outline view
I have something weird going on with Word 2000. I use outline view a lot, and
I like the automatic font formating with it. But suddenly, it's gone. The font is Times New Roman, and it stays Times New Roman when I try to change it. Nor does bold, italic or underline work. Nor can I change the font size. That's weird enough, but it gets worse. The outline fonts (the different fonts for different outline levels) now show up in Normal view. And if I go through the motions of changing a font in outline view, no change occurs in outline view, but when I go to Normal view, the font change shows up there. Other outline functions - promote, demote, show level 1, level 2 and so forth all work OK. This one's got me stumped. |

Not sure, but in Word try clicking on Tools | Options | View tab |
uncheck the "Draft font" box | OK. Andyjim wrote: I have something weird going on with Word 2000. I use outline view a lot, and I like the automatic font formating with it. But suddenly, it's gone.

Stuck with Times New Roman in Outline view
On the Outlining toolbar, there's a button with a plain A and a fancy one;
it's a toggle to show or hide formatting. I guess the theory is that when you have formatting hidden, you can probably see more text and get a better idea of the hierarchy. -- Suzanne S.

That's got it, Suzanne. It's easy when you know how! Guess I accidentally hit that button somehow one day. Thanks. Andy |

There is a button on the Outlining toolbar labeled "Show Formatting." This
toggles display of formatting (including fonts) off and on. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "templeman" wrote in message ...
