SUMMARY
Microsoft Word 2000 supports 24-bit text font colors.

Word 2000 Rich Text Format (RTF) is backward-compatible and is both 16-bit and 24-bit compliant. RTF translators and compilers can process Word's 24-bit text font colors.

However, if you are using an older compiler (such as the Help Compiler that ships with Microsoft Visual C++ 4.0 or Microsoft Visual C++ 4.02 Help Workshop), you may need to update your compiler to version 4.03, which is available for download from the Microsoft Download Center.



MORE INFORMATION
Help Workshop version 4.03 is available for download from the Microsoft Download Center.

The following file is available for download from the Microsoft Download Center:

Hcwsetup.exe
