Symptoms:
Text appears garbled or in a different font
Fonts not appearing in font picker
STATUS: WORKAROUND
Testing: Is it possible to download a free trial version?Of course, you should define your own priorities and add your individual questions, i.e. Microsoft project trial.
We recommend you check the installed versions of the font. If you have multiple versions, then make sure the latest version of the font is active.

If the problem still occurs, quit Microsoft Word, and restore the file to its original location. Then, go to the next step. If the problem seems to be resolved, you can move the com.microsoft.Word.plist file to the trash. Quit all Microsoft Office for Mac programs. On the Go menu, click Home. Open Library. Nov 27, 2017 This is understandable. Anyway, all applications in the Office for Mac 2011 suite are reached the end of support on Oct. Ok, this is better. I will see whether Microsoft Office 2011 works or not in the new macOs High Sierra. I happen to have a Mac at home that indeed needs a complete refresh.
