Re: Fonts change weirdly when using Slovak keyboard layout

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

I used "Arial" with Swiss German layout. As soon as I change to Slovak
it would always return to "Times New Roman" (even if I explicitly
choose "Arial", it changes to "Times New Roman" as soon, as I type the
first character). I use OS X Tiger with the German language for the
GUI. Besides my Office GUI is in German as well. Yesterday I installed
the updates for Tiger and the problem still exists. I double checked if
there were Microsoft's updates to Office, but I seem to have installed
all of them.

P.S.: I just remeber, that first some fonts like "Monotype Corsiva"
didn't show the slovak characters, therefore I installed the Fonts from
a Windows (Office 2003) system. Now I can actually display slovak
characters with "Monotype Corsiva", but I have to do the following:
First I have to write the Text with the Slovak layout (Office changes
to "Times New Roman"), then I can choose "Monotype Corsiva". If I do
so, the foreign characters show up correctly. Do you think my issue
might be caused by installing the fonts from a Windows system?
