We have corporate fonts that don't appear on the basic word package. When we want to send a document in these fonts, it opens in weird looking fonts.

Is there any way to attach our fonts to the word document before sending it so that it opens looking the same as it was created?

Hi Anna, Thank you for your post, in answer to your question, there is an option in the Save As dialog box, click the Tools button drop down and choose Save Options, in the Save dialog box that opens you have an option to Embed True Type Fonts, with two sub options, Embed characters in use only and Do not embed common system fonts, this last is selected by default. I hope this has helped, if so please click the Resolved link, best regards Pete

Word tip:

Move your cursor quickly to its previous position

Use these shortcut keys to quickly move your cursor back to its previous position in a Word document (particularly handy if you are working in a long document).

Hold down Ctrl + Alt + Z (or Command Option + Z on the Apple) to automatically move your cursor back to its previous position. You can use these keys more than once and Word will keep moving your cursor back to where it has been previously.
