If you don't mind using a workaround that's a pain-in-the-a**, you can use
the Palm fonts in NotePad, one at a time. You will have to enter your text,
change the font NotePad uses to display *all* text, take a snapshot of the
screen, edit the screen shot with your favorite graphics editor, save a bmp
of the text, then paste that bmp into your word document. If you only need
to do this a few times, then its not a bad idea. If you need to do it a
lot, then you might want to look for a printer driver for a printer that
contains the palm fonts. Installing this printer driver would enable those
fonts in Word. However, I have no idea if such a printer driver exists.
