The thing you tried will not work if a font is in fact corrupt, and
reinstalling Office may not fix it either. To check for corrupt
fonts, open the Font Book application, select all the fonts and use
the Validate Fonts selection under the File menu. Also, drag the
Fonts folder from the Office installation (located in the office folder
that is inside the Microsoft Office applications folder) onto the Font
Book window and validate those fonts as well. This is assuming
a proprietary font manager like Suitcase is not being used, in which
case, see what kind of options it has as well.
A co-worker, who is Mac-based, keeps getting a "font is corrupt"
when opening MS Word for Mac. I had him delete what I thought were
the right preferences, but no luck. His Excel hangs on opening,
too. Just delete the whole suite & re-install? tia.
