The thing you tried will not work if a font is in fact corrupt, and reinstalling Office may not fix it either. To check for corrupt fonts, open the Font Book application, select all the fonts and use the Validate Fonts selection under the File menu. Also, drag the Fonts folder from the Office installation (located in the office folder that is inside the Microsoft Office applications folder) onto the Font Book window and validate those fonts as well. This is assuming a proprietary font manager like Suitcase is not being used, in which case, see what kind of options it has as well. > A co-worker, who is Mac-based, keeps getting a "font is corrupt" > when opening MS Word for Mac.
