After installing 10.4 Microsoft word says my fonts are corrupt

Question

I have installed 10.4 from the disk. Now microsoft word starts up but brings up a message that " font name is corrupt and I shouls remove it" It has listed (one at a time) hundreds of my fonts.
I do not get this message when I open Adobe products so are the fonts corrupt or not?
If I need to "remove" my fonts - can anyone tell me where they all are and whether I will have problems in other applications such as the Adobe products.
Is there any known fix for this or just getting rid of fonts?
Many thanks

hai,
what u can do is try creating a new user .
u need to goto sytem pref>accounts and create a new account .
check the article in the link
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.4/en/mh168.html .
then u need to login that other account and check if the issue persits in that other account .
if the issue doenst happen in the other account , then we need to troubleshoot the main account .
the fonts that u install in a user is located in
HDD/users/user name/library/fonts .
u can put put this folder on ur desktop restart and check if MS word gives u the same error message .
if u need any clarification please reply to [email protected] .
thanks,
