Why doesn't Word's Fonts list show all of the fonts I have installed in Windows?

This page last revised: 06 Jan 2024 23:47:31 -0500 .

 

It is probably because of your selection of a default printer in Windows. At one time Word loaded all fonts that were loaded in the operating system but that slowed down starting Word without much benefit since most fonts are never used. Now, it loads those fonts that are recognized by the default printer (still more than most people use.)

If you change printers for any job in Word, that changes the default printer in Word for that session of Word. When you restart Word, the default printer will be the default printer as set in Windows. (There is an exception to this statement, too, for Word 2000. If, in Word 2000, VBA resets the active printer, that setting becomes the Windows default upon leaving Word. This is a bug.)

See . . .

http://word.mvps.org/faqs/formatting/NoFonts.htm

For information on resetting the default font in Word see that topic.
