In the Fonts folder, see if the File menu includes the Install New Font
option. If not, it may be that you have exceeded the allowable number of
fonts. This is not likely, though, if you're using an OS that can run Word
2003, as newer OSes don't have the limitations that older ones had. See
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/CommonFontProbs.htm for some other
avenues to explore.

It is some of the True Type fonts which aren't showing . . . fonts like
'Kidprint' which show in the font folder but not in Word 2003

What fonts are you seeing in the Fonts folder that you cannot access in
Word? Note that some fonts are screen fonts (.fon), and Word won't use
them
because it can't print them. And Word doesn't list the bold and italic
variants of fonts (they're accessed by using the Bold and Italic font
properties). And if you have "Show only TrueType fonts in the programs
on my
computer" checked on the Fonts tab of your Fonts folder Folder Options,
you
won't see PostScript or printer-resident fonts.

I have more fonts in the Windows folder than I can access in Word
2003.
How
do I add fonts to Word font list. This didn't happen with Word 97 as
every
font in the Windows folder seemed to be accessible.
