Those links did not work, I need to get the updates fonts from microsoft, however the site seems not to list word 97

Not sure if MS supports anything from Office 97 any more, after all it's eight years old now. Try some from Office 2000. The links work for me. :)

Word 97 is the best word processor I have seen from MS - anything newer is bloated with extra features that nobody wants or needs. The automatic crap just serves as a nuisance.

Fonts can be added to windows easy via the control panel (under fonts) - look for stuff that isn't just specifically designed for one word processor.

The doc you were working on should still list the name of the font you used.

What's the name of the font?

Sounds like another search around the house is in order.

The fonts that Word uses are actually the fonts that are stored in the operating system's font folder. If you remember the name of the font you require, do an internet search for it, download it, and install it to the fonts folder. The fonts folder can be accessed from Control Panel.

I'm looking for Edwardian Script, the one web site does not offer it for free. Would anyone be able to send it to me or have a link?
