font problems

[Denny]

I was using Arial font in a Word 2003 document and then changed it to
wingdings (so it could not be easily read by others) but then I wanted to
keep working on it so tried to change it back from wingdings font to Arial
but it is unreadable. Please help. How can I again make have it in a readable
English font?

By the way, changing to Wingdings is a really poor way of "protecting"
text. Instead, set a password so others can't open the document (but
make absolutely sure you remember the password!).
