Default Fonts question

Thank you VERY much, Don! I had googled for both of the fonts but didn't
run across this particular site; and had trouble finding one of the fonts
anyhow. This site looks wonderful!

If you are still looking for those two fonts you can get them he

Note there may be more than one file for the particular font, i.e.,
regular, italic, bold etc.

good luck

Someone sends me a Publisher newsletter for our organization for me to
proofread. When I try to open it, I can't because apparently she uses
two fonts that I don't have, so Publisher substitutes Times New Roman
(the fonts are Optane and Angostura), then it will open. She doesn't
seem to know where they are in her newsletter (she said she just goes by
the looks ? ? ). Is there any way she can find where they are so that she
can substitute Times before she sends it to me? It said something about
using TrueType fonts being better. How can one tell which fonts are
TrueType? Seems to me they USED to have TT after the name of the font.

Don, I went to that site and found the fonts I was looking for. According
to the directions on the site, I downloaded one of them (to Desktop). Then
tried dragging it to the Fonts folder, but nothing happened. Then I tried
to Copy and Paste it, but still nothing happened. Any suggestions?

Default Fonts question

Was it a .zip file or a .ttf file?

Default Fonts question

I took another look at the font on the desktop (it wasn't a .zip), and found
a setting that said it was blocked, and I could click on Unblock. That
solved it!

Yippee. Those little things can really hang us up, can't they?
