Earl the GOAT Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 I notice that my computer (Windows Vista Home Premium / Office 2007) renders the "Times" font as a sans-serif font (like Arial) rather than as a more similar serif font (like Times New Roman). This is a problem because I receive a lot of PowerPoint files created on Mac computers for which Times is the default font type. I was wondering if there was an easy fix for this?

Hb_Kai Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 For opening the files with a "default" font so that the font changes once opened on a Mac? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-pops- Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 Times is not a standard font in Windows so what it will do is render it as the default font that you have on your machine, whatever that is set up to be.Don't know if it will help but have a look at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/184626 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
