This article was previously published under Q184514





SYMPTOMS
Some of the fonts that appeared at the top of the Font list (on the Formatting toolbar) fail to reappear when you restart Word.

NOTE: In earlier versions of Word, the list of fonts at the top of the Font list [called the "Most Recently Used" (MRU) Font list] includes the last six fonts you used. This list is retained when you exit Word. The MRU Font list is comprised of any font used in a document, including TrueType fonts, screen fonts, and printer fonts.



CAUSE
When you restart Word, only the fonts that are used in Word's predefined styles are listed.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article.



MORE INFORMATION
Microsoft Word uses the following fonts for its default styles, and, as a result, only these fonts are retained at the top of the Font list:

Arial

Courier New

Tahoma

Times New Roman
