Graham,
Thank you so much for your timely response here, I really appreciate it.
I've read many of your responses over the years and they have been most
helpful. Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to assist here.
Have a great rest of the week.

A version of Courier will be installed when you are using a printer with a
resident Courier font eg some HP printers. If the active printer that has
the font is not present then there will be font substitution. The answer is
to only use the fonts that you require - just as you wouldn't use Arial when
you want Times New Roman, don't use Courier when you require Courier New.

Thanks in advance to all of the hardworking MVPs that monitor this

One of my clients using Word 2007 noticed that symbols while
transferring table data between the 'Courier' and 'Courier New' font
behaved differently. While researching this issue I learned that
'Courier' is an older bit-mapped font that is best used for onscreen
display but not printing. 'Courier New' is a TrueType font that works
well in either environment. I noticed a when a symbol is entered in
'Courier' then switched to 'Courier New' and back the symbol appears
to remain in the TrueType format. Is there any known reason for why
this occurs or why symbols behave differently with these two fonts?
Is there anything that can be done regarding this?
Again, thanks in advance,
