The font Vivaldi is corrupt and should be removed." launch message

[Fogharty]

Every time I do anything to my fonts folder, add a font, disable,
enable, etc. I get a message from all my MS Office apps that "The font
Vivaldi is corrupt and should be removed." Except I don't have that
font, or anything like it. And when I do a search for "vivaldi" all I
get is my music in iTunes.

I am using Word 2004, but the message also appears in Excel 2008,
etc.
It's no big deal, everything runs fine. But it is a puzzlement.
I am running 10.4.11 on a G5.

Check manually in /Library/Fonts and /Users?<You>/Library/Fonts

Also check the subfolders. I suspect it might be there.
If not, it could be a matter of corrupted font cache. You could quit
all Office applications, go to your preference folder and delete the
Font cache from the Microsoft folder there.

Corentin, going to my Preferences folder and deleting the Font cache
worked!

Thanks a lot!

I'm glad it did
Thanks for telling us. It'll potentially help other folks here with the
same problem,
