word art and fonts

[pbs4u]

Can word art use Type 1 fonts?

I received a .pub file and when opened in Pub2003SP2 the font for some word
art was missing. So, I activated my Type 1 version of the font.
Upon the .pub file displaying, the word art was extreamly alaised
(stairstepped).

As a test I redid the above but changed the missing font to a different True
Type face. Worked well.

Do I have to buy a True Type version of the face, word art doesent work with
Type 1, there is a bug in Publisher, or I need to reinstall Publisher?

Several programs or program features don't work well, if at all, with Type 1
fonts. WordArt is one of them. Check to see if that font is available as a
True Type.
