Fonts appear bold on screen but not showing in the style
Hello, I'm having some issues with font appearances in my Microsoft Word file. It appears that the fonts look almost bold in my file (although not actually the bold style). I don't want to have the text looking bold. When i check the style setting for the normal text, it is not set to bold. Instead it reads as "Automatic". The text in the file that I am using is the normal style used for body text but not headings. But in the original file it was set to Arial Black. But when I change the style to "automatic" both in the source file and the destination file, it still appears as Arial Black. But when I look in the font preview box, the font appears regular. -- arblaarbla |

Arial Black is a bold faced font, so it is bound to look bold. Use Arial
instead. The only reference to 'automatic' in the font dialog concerns the font colour and how it appears on different coloured backgrounds. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org KenDavies wrote: Hello, I'm having some issues with font appearances in my Microsoft Word file.
