Jagged font in Word 2003
CroasmunJT 6/22/2007 6:07:02 PM
I'm helping a faculty member with a font problem. The fonts that show up for
him in Word 2003 are jagged/aliased. He gets the same jagged text when he
composes emails (he uses Outlook 2003 which uses Word 2003 as the email
editor), but he gets the nice, readable, anti-aliased, soft-edged font when
he reads recieved emails. I can't find the setting anywhere to get rid of the
jagginess in Word. Help.

Please let us know the names of 9some of) the fonts that show in the
word list. Then, navigate to the Control Panel fonts list and let us
know if the same fonts are listed there.

There isn't a discrepancy. Arial, Helvetica, Times New Roman, Galliard show
up in the program and in the control panel fonts area.
