After migrating most of my Type 1 fonts to OpenType (at great expense and time), I discovered my Office applications did not show all my newly-installed OpenType fonts. (Every other application displayed them fine.)
After much troubleshooting - including deleting the Office Font Cache, remove the Font Cache Tool, cleaning system font caches several times, repairing permissions, removing and re-installing the new fonts, and even installing them on my Windows PC to make sure they were OK - I called Microsoft. The analyst told me (after being on hold for 30 minutes or so) that Office 2004 has a limit of 499 fonts (individual typefaces, not families).
Conveniently, the technote she referred to was not for public distribution. I have looked everyplace I can - even called Adobe - but I cannot find either verification of this limit or why Office isn't displaying all my fonts.
I am running OS X 10.4.2 on a 1.67 GHz PowerBook, with 2 Gb RAM and a 100 Gb drive.
