Can't print out all fonts in Word

[Lmariss]

Hello my printer can't print out word documents with all fonts. It could print out arial but not adobe fonts and other fonts. 
If i have a table with text in i get nothing. Sometimes it prints out just one of the tables.
I could print it out if i made it a PDF document.. any idea whats wrong with my word?

Word may not understand the fonts.

Word only understands TrueType fonts - and I would guess the Word software either carries font data internally (in the office software) or it might be using the fonts on the Windows File System.

You could always ask at the Microsoft forum - Microsoft likely knows the Office products a bit better than having some random person guess at what is happening to your table data.  Smiling.

You have discovered the "way 'round" - create PDF.

If you really don't want to use PDF, the other way round is to recreate the table as an image, insert the image file into your document.  No need to "translate" table data with odd fonts.

• Create a Snip of the table when the document is open on your screen,
• Save the Snip as a jpg file (image file),
• Cut the table out of the document,
• INSERT the saved image file into the document,
• Right-Cilck on the inserted image and adjust the size and position (IF necessary).
• Save the document under a different name (to prevent losing your original work).

Snip – available since Vista!  Check out the “delay” feature in Windows 10

Yes, big hassle.

There might well be a better answer out there....
