How do I embed fonts in excel?
can't legally distribute it as it is under copyright. Purchased font

(I'm not sure if Word installs that font or just uses it in place (maybe not even the correct terms!). But if it's not installed, ....) LazyBoy wrote: Thanks. Its a shame really. I guess I'll have to embed the Excel files in Word and then embed the font in Word also. Not sure if it'll work? "Dave Peterson" wrote: Excel doesn't support this. Why--just a guess. I figure that MS thought of excel as a number cruncher--not as a word processor or presentation program.

If so can someone tell me how, if not why?! Thanks -- Dave Peterson -- Dave Peterson |
