Please do not post your QUESTION as a "Suggestion for Microsoft".

You don't "connect them". You install the fonts into Windows on
the computer where you want to use them. See
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314960 "How To Install or Remove
a Font in Windows".

According to http://www.microsoft.com/typography/fonts/default.aspx,
Marigold and Coronet have never been supplied with any Microsoft
application. What they did/do come with was/is certain HP LaserJet printers.
Find the install disk/CD for whatever LJ you were using with Word 97, and
you'll probably find those fonts.
