Is there any way to reset MS_Office so that it will not install these fonts
on a network Home Directory. It seems wasteful to have these font's
installed in the Applications/Microsoft Office 2004/Office/Fonts and
Macintosh HD/Library/Fonts and then the Application installs another 80Mb in
each users home directory when they first login. Is there anyway around
this?
