Default Creating Web Pages using Word

I edited a friend's site one afternoon with Word. Pee-eww! - that really
..... um, well, it's sucks like a Kirby! But I can tell you her fonts were
okay.

There are a few fonts that are considered "web-safe". Comic is one of them.
And Helvetica/Arial is too. No clue why yours got all boogered up.

My advice would be to hold off creating websites until you can get something
else. If you have to use Word, then maybe it's a Mac thing. Did you check
with the web host?

I'm a Mac user - I have Office 2004, I guess that means nothing to PC
users, but I use Word to create web pages, and will do so until I can
get something good and proper. I would use FrontPage except there is no
Mac version.

This may just be a Mac thing, but no matter what font I choose, some
letters appear screwed up ....I 've tried a number of fonts. I would
like to use Arial or Veranda but no success. Nor any luck with Comic
Sans or Helvetica ( I think thats a Mac font). Can nayone suggest a
web/Word/Mac friendly font?

Ideas? Suggestions? And yes, I am saving up for Dreamwaver

thanks!
