have created a two sided brochure using publisher 2000.
coworkers are not able to open or print the brochure on
their pc's because the fonts are not recognized. fonts
used are papyrus and BethsCuteHmkBold. Is there a way to
load these fonts or for other users to get the correct
fonts.

I suppose you could copy the font files and send them along and then they
could install them in their computers.

Hi j (jwalsh@augurinc.com),

In addition to Don's reply, be sure you go to Tools > Commercial Printing
Tools > Fonts and *embed* the fonts (you will be prompted if they are not
allowed to do so).

After managing to set up OE-QuoteFix on his new PC, Ed reads a message

If Brian's option fails, here's some more detail on copying fonts from PC to
PC.
Use Start > Run to go to c:\windows\fonts
Find the fonts that you need (make sure you get the bold and italic
variants)
Copy them to a network share or disk
Now copy them to a temporary folder on the target PC
Now open up the c:\windows\fonts folder on that computer and install them
using "Install Font" (this may be done automatically if you drag the font
files into the Fonts folder - give it a go)
