Hi, I seem to have defaulted to Asian fonts in word XP. I dont know if it is linked but Ive also had problems recently with viewing photos embedded in word that OK originally but it then decided that there was insufficient memory to view them when i open the file. Any ideas please..........and how can I get rid of asian fonts default

In Word, Tools, Language, Set Language. If that works, please described you photo problem in detail. LL

Asian fonts huh. do you still have english fonts? you set the default font in word by Format/Fonts choose the font and other specs and hit the default button. Graphics display in word. insufficient memory? what do you have running in the background? Are you sharing files on the internet?

Cheers LL......language is already set at english. When i go to Format/font i can see Latin text and asian text font at the side of the selection box! Photos are just two small pictures inserted in with text......but an error message says insuffiecient memory to show pictures.

Thanks Rayman Ive also tried to change the default the way you specify and it defaults back later........i noticed that at the side of the selection tab it has asian text fonts No file sharing.......and no other programs open! that im aware of......wonder if its spyware??

My guess is corrupt Normal.dot file Click Here LL

how abouot going into control panel / fonts and deleting the unwanted one's. i just sent you another copy of normal.dot from office 2000 pro. or you can search on normal.dot, open it with word and make the font change there and save the .dot file
