Missing Fonts since Office 2003 install

[Nate]

Can anyone tell me why I would lose the Times font,
Helvetica Narrow and Hana font after an Office 2003
install and a reinstall of MS Publisher 2002?

If not, where can they be obtained?

Thanks,

Nate

Fonts are never ever removed or existing fonts interfered with in any way by
an Office or Publisher install.

This issue has nothing to do with Publisher or Office 2003.

Take your blame theory elsewhere.

Times and Helvetica likely came with your printer.

I don't believe they came with Office.

as to why they don't show up...

have you looked in the fonts folder and verified that are not there? There's
nothing in the installation of any software that will delete fonts.
Unfortunately, most installations add them!

If you have more than 300 fonts or so activated (fewer than that in W98)
then you may have crossed over the line of the number that an be comfortably
handled by your system

de-active those you don't need. if you can get it down to 300 or so you'll
be better off

(in the old days running phototypesetters, we were happy as stink to have 16
fonts on line at the same time -- and that included regular, italic, bold,
and bold italic as four!)

If one uses a Font Manager he could have lost the association when he installed 2003.
Font Managers do not install the font in the system, it only creates a shortcut to
the font.

Nate, you have been told and you still question it.
Of course Office/Publisher does not tamper or remove fonts.
It will add fonts, but not delete or change any!!!
My gawd where does trash like you crawl out from the woodwork.

David,

Did someone steal your gold or something? Nate doesn't deserve your
response.

Just a suggestion: the next time you feel a need to post something
nasty, take a small break. head to your refrigerator and pour a small
glass of wine plus cut off a piece of cheese. Sip and nibble on them
until they are gone, then hit delete and move on to the next reply. You
might find more people will respect you.

FWIW:
Helvetica Narrow is usually found *only* when a user is using a PostScript printer.
Additionally, It is usually *only* available as a printer-resident font. [It is/was part
of the original / default "PostScript 13" and "PostScript 35" font assortments.]

Was your user originally set up to use a PostScript printer, and was that inadvertently
changed (to a PCL or GDI printer) during the Office 2003 install?
