Default Font problems in custom templates

Hi

I've created a template that is sitting on a network with about 6 users.
The default font on each user's machine is Palatino Linotype and the font in
the template is Palatino Linotype.

When a user copys text from any other document and pastes it into the
document they have created with the template the font comes in as Verdana.
This even happens if the original font is Times New Roman.

Does anyone have any ideas on how I can fix this?

Regards

Dawn

Use edit - paste special - as plain text (or with the following macro)

Sub PasteUnfText()
On Error GoTo oops
Selection.PasteSpecial DataType:=wdPasteText, Placement:= _
wdInLine
End
oops:
Beep
End Sub
