MS LineDraw font doesn't show

I have a number of old documents that use the MS LineDraw font.  That font is in my Windows\FONTS folder, but does not appear in the WORD fonts list .

When I rest the cursor on those characters, it shows that font in the FONT panel - but the characters are displayed (e.g. ÚÄÄÄÄ )as if they were Danish (?)

How can I get WORD 2010 (Win7) to behave properly?

Hi Robin,

 

The MS LineDraw font is not supported in any version of the Microsoft Word (since the Word 97).

You may refer to one of your thread for the similar issue and check if it helps:

I hope this information helps you.
