Regarding this—it’s not really about picking an existing one, but rather how to actually download a new font from the web and get it working within Microsoft Word (specifically older versions).

Is that even doable?

You don't actually import it into Microsoft Word; you just drag and drop the file straight into your C:\WINDOWS\Fonts folder, and then—presto—it magically appears in your font list whenever you're working in Word. As for how to snag one from the web? Just head over to Google, search for "free fonts," click the very first link that pops up, and watch the magic happen.

I actually already had the font downloaded; I just didn't realize how to get it to actually work.

Thanks so much 😁

With your help, I managed to get it sorted in about 30 seconds 😁 Thanks again 😉
