Post subject: Installing Fonts
Archived from groups: microsoft>public>mac>office (more info?)

I understand that there are some font issues as to Office 2008 replacing old fonts. This question is different. I can't seem to install a font and have office see it. I have a font called pasdenom, a ttf font. I install it via font book (and also manually) and it does not show up in my drop down fonts list. When I use format fonts replace font it does show up. On my other computer it will not show up at all in office, but I can see it in font book and using another app, Photoshop CS3 I can use it.

I am using Office Home and Student Edition

Yes, it's a bug. They are working on a patch to fix it. A handful of fonts
"don't" show up in the Fonts menu.

However, they are usually visible in the Font drop-down on the Formatting
Toolbar, and in the Format>Style dialog.

In the meantime, you can either make a style that contains it, or you can
use Customise Toolbars to drag the font to your toolbar.

Hope this helps
