Re: You should add in a font update to Office Update packs.

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Since there are hundreds of thousands of fonts available, you wouldn't want

how you determine whose font is downloaded, how the update is supposed to
know which ones you wanted/needed, etc.

And this comes from an admitted font-aholic. :-)
