How to set the 'default' font when the specified font - Microsoft Community


there seems curious bug in office products. when complex font used in email or word document not exist on pc displayed font seems default font near top of list of installed fonts, alphabetically (in case angsana new, though have agencyfb , algerian above this).

angsana new tiny, obscure font difficult read 'foreign' characters thai or hebrew. it's kind of squashed version of times.

this means if send email not have font selected text, can't read (foreign) text. have same problem receiving foreign texts , have manually edit email or document received , change different font each time. isn't straight forward, when need change font 'foreign' text , not latin-based texts, otherwise layout altered.

so how set office (or windows in general) default font of choosing (for complex fonts, think)? i've tried set default font in office options (customize stationery & fonts) doesn't seem have effect.

a related question system fonts used in dialogs or windows file explorer. font small read (e.g. filenames in thai or chinese). how select different universal (or complex) font this? and/or increase size of font (sometimes temporarily 1 can zoom in read filename more clearly)?

thanks in advance,

gary

office not have fallback font formatting. if used file>options>advanced>font substitution... set this, setting unique installation. not travel document.

the safest approach when don't have control on available fonts use 1 of fonts comes microsoft office.

you can provide feedback through link developers can review suggestions improve service.
