Hi all,
Would like your feedback on a strange issue I'm having. I've only recently made the switch to the Mac platform, and am loving it. I've hit my first major snag though, I installed Office Mac 2008 and it's having issues with the fonts on it.
When I choose a font that lies within a selection arrow, it chooses a completely different font from somewhere higher in the font listing. It's very weird!
For example, if I click the Baskerville arrow and then select any font type such as Regular, it sets the font to American Typewriter! When I choose other fonts it will either pick the typewriter font or one called Abada MT. I tried to see if it was a problem with the tree by scrolling through the font names with the font name selected and using the down key, but I can't see any of the fonts that use these arrow trees - specifically this applies with my custom fonts that I have installed (from reputable font factories).
Does anyone know what might be causing this? I'm so confused! My version of Word is the absolute latest update available from today 20th, October 2008 which is 12.1.3.
Thanks in advance!
