Fonts Installed by Office 2004 for Mac

Hi JE (or whomever else reads this message),

Actually I haven't bought Office 2204 Mac yet, and I'm looking to find
out what fonts it installs before I buy it (and if it even matters).

The reason is this: I have probably a hundred Word 2001 documents
which use what I think are Corel WP fonts and Mac OS 9 fonts such as
Andale Mono and Engravers Bold Gothic, and soon I will update to
Office 2004 and Mac OSX.

This may seem like a dumb question, but I'm trying to find out if I'll
be able to open these Word documents (with these odd fonts) after I
update to OSX and Office 2004, or if I'll be able to install the
necesary fonts, then open the docs (as opposed to changing all the
fonts in these existing documents). If you have the answer for this,
I'd appreciate it.

Thanks, Tim Robert

If you still have the fonts you used in MacOS 9, you can still probably
use them in Office 2004 though.

You'll certainly be able to open the docs. Word will make substitutions
if necessary.

If you install your fonts in Classic's System Folder, Word will use
them unless you have a font of the same name in your ~:Library:Fonts or
HD:Library:Fonts folders.

Here are the fonts that are in the Office 2004 fonts folder:

It's possible I copied them from somewhere else... I don't have the
install disk with me, so I can't check...

I just had a look at my folder (Applications\Microsoft Office
2004\Office\Fonts), and I've got them, so I assume that they are part of the
Office installation. Not that it's really important, I just thought that I
should mention it.

Is there any way to reset MS_Office so that it will not install these fonts
on a network Home Directory. It seems wasteful to have these font's
installed in the Applications/Microsoft Office 2004/Office/Fonts and
Macintosh HD/Library/Fonts and then the Application installs another 80Mb in
each users home directory when they first login. Is there anyway around
this?

If you're using Panther, right-click the Fonts folder and choose "Create
archive of Fonts", then after the zip file is done, throw away the fonts
folder and empty the trash. If you're not using Panther, use DropStuff
or another compression program.

Of course, you could just trash the Fonts folder, but I like keeping it
around just in case.
