No fonts in Word, Powerpoint or Publisher

I have installed Office2003 Pro on my laptop. The font dropdownmenu on the
formatting toolbar in Word, Powerpoint or Publisher only shows "DEVICE FONT"
and nothing else. If I'm in Excel, however, I have access to all fonts
installed on the computer. What could be the problem? I have the same package
on my desktop computer and it works fine.

In Windows, click on Start | Control Panel | Printers. What printer is
selected as the default printer? If it's None or Generic/TextOnly, then
change the default printer to one that is capable of printing fonts, and
you will see more choices in Word.

Thanks a lot mate.
Problem solved by the click of a few buttons.
