Hi, I suddenly lost a whole section of fonts called "Americana". Why aren't
they in the list when I go to them in MS Word and how can I get them back.
Is it possible that they were not here (in vista) and I'm getting confused
with xp? In either case, if they were in xp shouldn't they be here also?
Can I bring them in from xp?
Thanks, Catt

Thanks for the reply. OK, maybe so, but what about now? Can I transfer
fonts? Hence, my question was...."can I bring them in from XP?"

Of course. Copy them from your Fonts folder in XP onto a USB thumb drive or
transfer across the network, etc. Then put them into your User directory
and install them in Vista.
