Question handwritten fonts in PP 2007


I have just downloaded and installed some handwritten fonts off the Internet. They are a combination of True type and open type fonts. The fonts are apeparing in Word but not in PP. Is there something I need to do in PP to make them available?

Thanks

Hi AusJN - PowerPoint supports both TTF and Open Type. Unfortunately, PPT does some graphics rendering on fonts and sometimes that rendering is incompatible with PPT.

Can you share the link where you found the fonts? Sometimes changing the font size (larger or smaller) will help.

Hi David,

The fonts cam from Tom's Blog "Over 100 handwritten fonts". It was the 70+ Seriously Useful Handwritten Fonts and Inspirational Showcases ? tripwire magazine link.

The fonts aren't even appearing in the font list on PP even though they are installed on the computer. The fonts work really well in Word though!

What are some of the specific fonts you are using? I'd be happy to see if I can duplicate the problem and offer some advice.
