5. I have a graphical TTF font that I use for bullets and a couple of
graphics, but it doesn't stick to the document using 'Embed True Type
Fonts'. Any ideas? (Yes, there is a style for it in the template.)

If you don't get an answer to this, here, try in the word.printingfonts
newsgroup.


The font in question is set for "No Embedding Allowed." (Text below
snipped from word.printingfonts.)

Either TrueType or OpenType fonts can be embedded depending on the
permission level set in the font file. As a matter of Copyright, font
file owners have the sole right to determine if the font is to be
embeddable, and if so, at what level of use.

TrueType fonts have embedding permissions encoded within them that
determine how they can be used by tools that convert them into the
embedded font format. There are four levels of font embedding:
a.. No-embedding permissions are used by a small proportion of
available fonts. The creators of these fonts have decided not to allow
embedding. Some foundries set their fonts to no-embedding, but offer
upgrades to embeddable versions. If you come across a no-embedding font
that you would like to use, contact the supplier and ask about a
possible upgrade.
b.. Print and preview fonts can be embedded, but do not allow editing.
c.. Editable fonts can be embedded and fully edited but are only
temporarily installed on the system.
d.. Installable fonts are installed and remain on the system.
In order to know if the font is embeddable and at what level, you would
have to contact the supplier or creator or have a sample you can examine
using the TrueType properties shell extension available from Microsoft's
typography site on the www.
