Default in Word, how to access an installed font not showing in the list?

Font shows in fonts list in control panel but not in list of fonts available
for Word.

If it has a .fon suffix, then it is a screen font, which can't be printed
and consequently won't be displayed in Word. If it's a PostScript or
printer-resident font and you aren't seeing it, you may have elected to
display only TrueType fonts.

I had this exact problem last week with a Type 1 font that was installed
correctly, and displayed correctly in Corel and Adobe apps, but simply
didn't show up in Word (although other Type 1 fonts did). I copied and
pasted some text from Photoshop: it appeared in Word using the troublesome
font, but graphically scrambled. I assumed - on minimal evidence to be
sure - that the font file was corrupt in some way that troubled Word but not
Photoshop.
