Hi everyone!
When I was working with the backup of the Malcolm X book to try in Poly
Edit, that word processor's default font is Currier New. I didn't realize
that until after I had saved the file. When I loaded it into Word to see
for sure that I had solved the line break problem, the font was still
Currier New and the size was 10, which is the default size in Poly
Edit. When I tried to change the font type in Word, all I got in the list
besides Currier New was device font, or something like that. I had no
trouble changing the size, however.
Since I didn't know what that was, I closed Word and opened the file in
WordPad, where I was able to change the font very easily to Times New
Roman. I saved, closed WordPad, loaded the file back into Word, and all is
well with Times New Roman and size 12 for the whole document, since I had
selected all of the text, which I wanted so I can size book title and
chapter headings accordingly.
Has anyone else gotten the device font thing in Word? If so, what do you
do to get the list of fonts on the system Word could choose from?
