Font anomaly - Times New Roman Bold
Hello
App: Word 2002 Standard (SP3) OS: Windows XP (SP3) TNR = Times New Roman If you apply Arial Font to some text and then click on 'Format | Font | Bold' the Font name remains Arial. Issue 1: Do the same to TNR the Font name changes to 'Times New Roman Bold'. If you then Permanently Convert the Font to TNR the bold remains. Issue 2: I can't choose 'Times New Roman Bold' from the Font dropdown. The TNR bold Font exists in the Fonts folder [TIMESBD.TTF]. Anyone know anything about these two anomalies? Any assistance would be appreciated. Regards Mike |

Font anomaly - Times New Roman Bold
Hi ?B?TWlrZSBGYXVsa25lcg==?=,
App: Word 2002 Standard (SP3) OS: Windows XP (SP3) TNR = Times New Roman If you apply Arial Font to some text and then click on 'Format | Font | Bold' the Font name remains Arial. Issue 1: Do the same to TNR the Font name changes to 'Times New Roman Bold'. If you then Permanently Convert the Font to TNR the bold remains. WHERE are you seeing "Times New Roman Bold"? Where are you finding the command "Premanently convert the font"? Issue 2: I can't choose 'Times New Roman Bold' from the Font dropdown. The TNR bold Font exists in the Fonts folder [TIMESBD.TTF]. That's because Times New Roman is the "parent", and italics and bold are just variations. If you typed it into the font box, it would most likely apply. Word's font list almost never includes ALL fonts installed, just "parent" fonts that aren't symbol fonts. Anyone know anything about these two anomalies? Any assistance would be appreciated.

Font anomaly - Times New Roman Bold
Hi ?B?TWlrZSBGYXVsa25lcg==?=,
Issue 1: In Word - Tools | Options | Compatibility | Font Substitution. I'm sorry, I can't help with this. I'm not terribly familiar with font compatibility and haven't any documents I can test on. My best guess would be that it has something to do with the fonts' internal properties, but I'm not an expert in this area... There's a public.word.printingfonts newsgroup that you should be able to find through this interface http://www.microsoft.com/communities...s/default.mspx You might try asking in the more specialized group.
