I want to send to soemone else, that doesn't have it in their word program.
I'm not sure where I got it from. I must have downloaded it in 2000.

You may not be able to do that, depending on the font. Sometimes there are
legal issues that mean you just can't give it to another person.

If the file is available to be sharaed, how would I share it? Its listed in
my font file in mt control panel

I would think that if it's a font that can be "shared", it would be
available on the web as a download. Have you tried searching Google?

I've tried, google, jeeves, as downloads,and "how to" but it is only bundled
with 100's of other fonts and very exspensive. I did not pay anything for it.
I was under the impression it was a standard microsoft word font. so far
nothing

Then you cannot "share" it with someone else. My suggestion is to find a
font that similar enough to the one the other person needs.

Which font is it by the way?

Zurich is not a font that came with any Microsoft operating system or
application software program. That font is copyrighted and the only way the
recipient is going to be able to get that font is to (1) purchase it from
Bitstream Inc or (2) purchase the same program you have that installed it on
your computer. Depending on the program, it may no longer be available so
that is probably not your best option.

There is a feature in Word that allows you to embed most TTFs in the Word
document. Since I said, may allow, it also may allow the receiving computer
to use the font for that file only. It doesn't install the font onto the
receiving system, only makes it available to the program while using the
file.

From help in Office '97

"Embed TrueType fonts in a document

If you used TrueType fonts in a document, you can save or "embed" them in
the document. That way, others can view, modify, and print the document with
its original fonts even if they haven't installed the fonts on their
computers.
Note that TrueType font vendors determine the licensing rights for embedding
fonts. For example, some fonts can't be embedded, and other embedded fonts
can be viewed and printed but not modified.

1 On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the Save tab.

Show me

2 Select the Embed TrueType fonts check box.
3 Save the document.

Note When you embed TrueType fonts, you may be able to reduce the file
size of your document by selecting the Embed characters in use only check
box. This option embeds only the font styles used in your document. Also, if
you used 32 or fewer characters of a font for example, a few symbols or a
headline Word embeds only those characters. Note that this option is most
useful for documents that other users plan to view or print only, because
the unembedded font characters and styles aren't available for editing. "

From Office 2002 (XP) & From Office 2003
"On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the Save tab.

1.. Select the Embed TrueType fonts check box.
2.. Save the document.
Note Embedded TrueType fonts can increase the size of your document. You
may be able to reduce the file size of your document by selecting the Embed
characters in use only check box. This option embeds only the font styles
used in your document. Also, if you used 32 or fewer characters of a font -
for example, a few symbols or a headline - Word embeds only those
characters. Note that this option is most useful for documents that other
users plan to view or print only, because the unembedded font characters and
styles aren't available for editing."

Hope this helps, let us know.
