Font problems in Office 2004 Mac OSX 10.3.9

[PD4501]

Hello. I have a problem with my font menus in both Word and Excel
2004, MacOSX 10.3.9. When I try to select or change a font the list
displayed is a mess. The font names display layered over each other
and thus it is unreadable. I use Fontbook to turn fonts on and off. I
can turn off all the fonts in Fontbook, restart, but still have the
problem. Any suggestions?
Many thanks,
Kipple

Did you run a font fixer like Font Finagler?

Do NOT turn off Apple's Helvetica, or any other font found in
/System/Library/Fonts.
