Well, it does not alert you with a sudden, loud warning sound and red lights, but it lets you see if a certain font is actually available or not. At least in the "Character" properties (right click, Character...), "Font" tab. Here "Paragraph..." has no such tab, but if it shows one, it's probably just like the one from "Character...". If the font in use is installed and can be used for printing, you will see The same font will be used on both your printer and your screen. (screenshot: http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/483/chardlgok.png) Otherwise, it will say This font has not been installed. The closest available font will be used. (screenshot: http://img850.imageshack.us/img850/6444/chardlg.png) And I guess for some fonts there will be a message saying these will look different on your printer, but I don't have any of these installed. -- Nuno J.
