blank font previews in dropdown list - office 2003 - FBC cache

In Office 2003 (word, excel, etc.), if "List font names in their font" is
chosen, you may see Blank Previews for many fonts. This may arise from
installing fonts in a non-standard way.

If this happens to you, you can solve the problem by deleting a temporary
file Microsoft Office creates to cache the previews, “fbc*.tmp†located in
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Microsoft\Office\.
After deleting this file, restart Word, and now the previews display
correctly.
