Fonts

[Falon Bone]

I have recently had to reformat my harddrive. After I
reinstalled Microsoft Office XP I had one fourth of the
fonts I orginally had. Can anyone please tell me what I
can do to get the others back? Thanks!

You install fonts by selecting Fonts in the Control Panel. Click File >
Install New Font. Browse to wherever the font files are located, select,
install. You'll get an error message for any font already installed, which
you can safely ignore.

As to where the font files are located, that's a harder question: it's
wherever you got them from in the first place. There's a standard set that
comes with most MS products (there is -- or used to be, anyway -- a listing
on the MS site). Some other software also comes with fonts. There are also
any number of websites offering fonts, some of which are free, and a few of
those are even worth using.
