Default font and size for office mac O8. I prefer Times New Roman, size 12

I have OS 10 and Word Office Mac : 2008. I prefer using generally Times New Roman, size 12 but sometimes for some applications something called Calumbria (spelling?) comes up ... and then I have to search for in the long list for Times New Roman.
95 % of the time Times New Roman comes up and I it is fine but sometimes with new documents then I get this Calumbria thing that I don't want. Any help would be most appreciated. I hope my question makes sense.

  • Arial and Times New Roman disappearing in Microsoft Office following update?

    After opening Microsoft Word following update to OS X Maverick on my 2012 15" Macbook Pro w/ retina, I noticed all my font in recent documents was gone, as if it was all turned white (it was not). Spell check still worked, the cursor blinked, but I couldn't see any words, even if I highlighted the text. I checked and did not have hidden text, etc. Times New Roman and Arial are really the only fonts I use, so it looked like Microsoft word was having an issue where it wouldn't display any text.
    My IT department played around with it, reset my permissions, reinstalled Microsoft Office, to no avail, though I then realized that every font except Arial and TNR can display. If I open a document in those fonts, I can't see any text, but if I highlight it and change the font to something else, it all appears. I can also copy paste from Arial/TNR into another application and it displays. Arial and Times New Roman don't come up in the dropdown for fonts, either, even though they're enabled in Font Book. Both of those fonts will work in Adobe CS6, however.
    I also noticed that all of the slide previews in PowerPoint, and most PowerPoint slides (except those that are only images), look blank—if there's a slide with a colored background and text on it (I'm not sure what font the text was in), the whole slide is totally white, no background.
    I just ran FontNuke, to remove font caches, which made no difference. Any thoughts?

    Hi Rdk1528 -- did you ever get this issue resolved? I'm having the same problem with my brand-new Mac, new Office 2013... the issue seems to have migrated from copying over the content of my previous computer.

  • Times and Times New Roman Do not display the same with ADE pdf reader

    Anyone an idea why?
    (These fonts display the same with MS word and Adobe Acrobate reader)

    That looks like a grunged version of Times New Roman. You probably have this font installed, and it's likely conflicting with the standard Times New Roman font.

  • How do you set default fonts and default text box sizes on bound form fields?

    I am using an existing PDF as a template to build my form in designer.
    I am dragging my objects from the schema window to the form and when I drop it on the form it is way too big - so for every field I do this with I am left to resize and reset the font to every bound object i drop on the page!
    Is there a way to set the default font and the default dimensions of the bound text boxes I am droping on the PDF form page?
    Thanks to anyone who can help!

    iWork '09 DVD set (containing Pages '09 v4.0, Numbers '09 v2.0, and Keynote '09 v5.0) is available from Amazon for USD $20. Apple no longer provides retail store, or OS X App Store downloads. You will need to apply the Apple iWork 9.3 updater afterwards to bring these applications to their n.3 (e.g. Pages '09 v4.3) last versions. You will have an /Applications/iWork '09 folder afterwards.
    I would also launch /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utilities, select your boot drive, and verify/repair permissions — just to be on the safe side for the newly added iWork '09 applicaitons.

  • Arial and Times New Roman fonts gone - Office 2008

    About a month ago, I began noticing that I could not see any text or figures in various Excel spreadsheets and Word documents that used Times New Roman or Arial fonts. I had not had a similar problem in the past 3+ years I have owned my Mac Pro with Office for Mac 2008. I can see text after I select the entire document or page or worksheet and change the font - but there has to be a better solution, right?
    Times New Roman, for example, appears as a font in the "All Fonts" collection and the "User" collection on my Mac. It does not appear in the "Computer" collection in Font Book, and when I try to drag it there from the "All Fonts" collection (for example), I get an error message that this is a duplicate. Many, many, many, many rounds of validating and deleting fonts have ensued. If the durned font isn't a duplicate, then it gets turned "OFF", and I can't turn it back "ON" without getting an error message again.
    Instead of burning 5 more hours on Google trying to figure this out, I thought I would try Discussions... Is there really no other option than trying to explore 4 different font folders on my computer and moving files here and there, thither and yon, etc., etc.?

    I upgraded from 10.4 to 10.5 and then to 10.6. On the move to 10.6, I found a number of fonts, including Arial and Times New Roman, that were broken; e.g. would display on the screen in a Word document but appear blank when sent to a printer.
    The problem seems to involve conflicts between old and new copies of the same fonts. The solution that worked for me was to find and delete the old ones. Specifically:
    Look at /Library/Fonts and /Users/(your_name)/Library/Fonts in two side-by-side finder windows.
    Sort both by name, and scroll through the two lists looking for the duplicates.
    Note: if one has a file extension such as .ttf or .ttc and the other doesn't, they're still duplicates.
    For each duplicate found, verify that the copy in the /Users/(your_name)/Library/Fonts folder is the older of the two (all of mine were); then drag the older one to an empty folder on your desktop.
    When you're finished, test to verify that the problem is solved; then delete the folder of old fonts.

  • Should I upgrade to Lion or stick to Snow for Office:mac use?

    I got a macbook pro 13" without the Lion upgrade, and I want to install Office for Mac. I just use this computer for research, papers and web surfing. Should I install Office:mac 2008 with Rosetta, or upgrade to Lion and get the Office:mac 2011?

    I think i need to correct my provious post.  It seems that Office 2008 does require Rosetta, but only during the installation process.  If you install Office 2008 on a Snow Leopard Mac and later upgrade to Lion, it will still work.  If you need to install Office on a Lion Mac you will need to to use 2011.

  • I cannot find the icon for office:mac 08 word on my doc, where did it go?

    I cannot find the icon for Office: mac 08 word on my doc. I downloaded the whole Office: mac 2008 Home & Student Edition about a year ago and just recently the word icon disappeared. The other Office icons are still visible and i am able to use them but i cannot find the word application anywhere.

    Have you used spotlight search? Typed "word" and the application doesn't appear? If it doesn't then it probably isn't around anymore.... so hit command + space ... and type "word"... what happens?

  • Fonts and Colors for Sub-Tabs

    Does anyone know of a way that I can specifiy fonts and colors
    for sub-tabs. I have a second row of tabs (sub-tabs) on one of
    my pages and I can't seem to find where I can set the font and
    colors for the sub-tabs. Also, the sub-tabs do not inherit the
    same font and color as the main tabs.
    Anyone have any suggestions?

    Hi, What I can tell you is that you can either edit the page and
    hit the style tab then edit the current style(the one you are
    currently using in your page) and change all the banners tabs
    (active and inactive) the background color, background image,
    etc, I believe the second tab row and any others are by default
    the same as the first row.

  • I plan to purchase a Mac mini and then a new iPad.  Can I use the iPad as a monitor and keyboard for the Mac mini, either through the USB connection or thru Wi-Fi?

    I plan to purchase a Mac mini and then a new iPad.  Can I use the iPad as a keyboard and screen for the Mac mini, using either the USB connector or Wi-Fi?

    I'm sorry, I should have said thru Bluetooth, not Wi-Fi.  I want to use the mini as a base station and the iPad like a laptop that I can sync when I'm home and carry with me when I travel.  Is is possible to hook these 2 up - iPad/mini, through Bluetooth?  I understand I need to use a regular monitor/keyboard/mouse on the initial install.

  • I'm getting error messages when I download updates for lightroom and flash for the mac. can't figure out how to trouble shoot.

    I'm getting error messages when I download updates for lightroom and flash for the mac. can't figure out how to trouble shoot.

    It sounds as if your browser and some of your apps are not color-managed.  This is pretty typical.  Even IE9 is only partially color-managed.
    You can expect color-managed and non-color-managed applications to show you different things with the same images.  How different will depend upon how different your monitor color profile is from the image's color profile.
    For web publication and most general use, experts usually advise saving images with the sRGB profile.  If such images, saved through the Save for Web & Devices function, look different to you than you expect, it may be that your input images have previously been saved in another color space.
    You should really try to get your head around color-management by reading more on it.  It can seem baffling and it's difficult to understand without some background.  A quick web search turns up many overviews.  Beware, though, even people writing articles sometimes don't fully understand it.

  • HT5622 I reset my ID and password for my Mac. How do I get that ID and password to work for my iPhone?

    I reset my ID and password for my Mac. How do I get that ID and password to work for my iPhone? My account is disabled on the iPhone until I have the ID and password synched for both devices.

    You cannot merge iCloud/Apple IDs. You must decide which one ot use, one or the other. Login with your new ID on your computer.
    Be aware that content/apps purchased with the old ID will be forever tied to that ID.
