135050 2003-04-11 11:05:00 I have tried using some of the font's that come with Word XP on a few different computers, but can't seem to type in them.
EG: Select the font Estrangelo Edessa
As soon as you start typing it switches back to the font you had before hand. This is the same for about a dozen other font's that came with word on the standard installation.

135051 2003-04-11 11:31:00 Why don't you set that font as the default font for Word? Might be a hassle if you use a lot of different fonts in one word document, but that's what I'd suggest for now, until someone comes up with a better way of tackling this problem.

To set the default font:
In your word document click on Format > Font, and when the window pops up, select the font you want, and the size. Then click on the Default tab. This will set that particular font as the default font.

It could be that it reverts because it knows it cannot print the font?
