fonts show bold only in Pub. and Excel, ok in Word
Several fonts, Boquet and Yorkshire among others, show bold only in Publisher
and Excel (03 or 07) but have bold and non-bold in Word. Italics and underline work as expected. Both are truetype, different developers. I don't know how many others, just using these as examples. -- ks_paper

Fonts are only as good as the developer that makes them. If these are free
fonts, no doubt you received what you paid for. The only Yorkshire font I have run across is more like a dingbat. -- Mary Sauer MSFT MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://msauer.mvps.org/ news://msnews.microsoft.com "ks_paper" wrote in message ...

Are there particular criteria that would make them work in Word and not in
Publisher? Any particular specifications that I could watch for to identify quality fonts that would work? That might be too easy. -- ks_paper "Mary Sauer" wrote: Fonts are only as good as the developer that makes them. If these are free fonts, no doubt you received what you paid for.

There are many, many quality fonts out there. There is a newsgroup devoted to
fonts. alt.binaries.fonts Do these fonts print bold? Publisher will make any font bold even though there isn't a corresponding bold font in the font folder. You have to be careful when you faux bold a font when you convert your publication into a PDF. You might get some ideas from the Microsoft Typography web site. http://www.ascendercorp.com/msfonts/...oductlist.html -- Mary Sauer MSFT MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://msauer.mvps.org/ news://msnews.microsoft.com "ks_paper" wrote in message ...

Thanks for the newgroup. These fonts will print bold. They work well in Word,
bold and non-bold, and print accordingly. That's what seemed odd, working in Word but not Publisher. In Publisher you get only the Bold font. I appreciate the answers. -- ks_paper "Mary Sauer" wrote: There are many, many quality fonts out there. There is a newsgroup devoted to fonts. alt.binaries.fonts Do these fonts print bold?

I have no answer for you. Maybe re-installing the font?
How does the Yorkshire font do as WordArt? -- Mary Sauer MSFT MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://msauer.mvps.org/ news://msnews.microsoft.com "ks_paper" wrote in message ...

Reinstalled the fonts. Same as before. Same action on multiple computers
also. They act the same in Wordart. I did notice on reinstalling that these are OLD fonts. Copyrights in 93 and 94. I'm sure font creation has evolved much since then. -- ks_paper "Mary Sauer" wrote: I have no answer for you. Maybe re-installing the font?
