Have you rebooted?
Office constructs its font cache from the system font cache. The system
rebuilds its font cache on startup.
Also: Are they ³not shown² in Word¹s menu, or ³Out of sequence²? Word
sometimes gets fonts out of sequence.
Sorry: I have no idea either.
Cheers

Ocean is a nice font. I am a fontaholic but didn¹t own this one until a new

I know this has me baffled too. I can¹t imagine why it shows up in everything
but Word. Never used Font Finagler, how and what does it do?

Hmm. I was a *very* naughty boy. In the interest of science only -- of
course -- you understand, I dipped into the festering underbelly of the
internet and briefly (ahem) borrowed (cough)...
Frutiger LT Std
Futura Std
and Ocean Sans Std
All three come up in Word after I install the fonts via Font Book and
restart Word.
I don't know what to suggest next. By using a different user, and
getting no improvement, you have proved it is not the Office Font Cache
(11), since each user gets a different copy.
I honestly don't know if it makes any difference, and it probably
won't, since other applications can see those fonts, but you might try
clearing the system font cache with Font Finagler.
ps Isn't Ocean elegant? I might have to buy that! (The others I already
knew and loved, but not in OTF variants)
