SYMPTOMS
Many of the publications created by the Publisher Wizards require the TrueType fonts that ship with Publisher to maintain their design integrity. If you choose a custom installation of Microsoft Publisher and install the Wizards but not the TrueType fonts, the results you get from the Wizards may look bad.



CAUSE
If the specific fonts required by the Wizards are not installed, they will generally be substituted with Times New Roman and Arial. This substitution may cause the text in text frames to wrap incorrectly or to overflow the frame; it may also cause tables to appear too large or too small.



RESOLUTION
If you did not install the TrueType fonts that come with Publisher, you can add them by following these steps:
 * 1) On the Windows Start menu, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.
 * 2) Double-click the Add/Remove Programs icon.
 * 3) In the list of installed programs, click Microsoft Publisher, and then click Add/Remove.
 * 4) Click Publisher Tools. Click Change Options.
 * 5) In the Publisher Tools dialog box, click to select the Fonts check box. Click OK. Click Continue.
 * 6) Insert the Publisher disks or compact disc when you are prompted to do so and follow the instructions on your screen.
