I had previously read the discussions on how to access MM founts but that is not really the way I want to go, if only because I will still have problems with any new typefaces that I buy (Although TransType may help with the ones I currently have).

I am using Office XP (Word 2002) which is aware of unicode. However I cannot even fidn out what the unicode ranges are for OSF, non proportional OSF, fractions and superscript so I cannot see how to use character map or any of the other tools to get the glyphs (or how to use the utility to stript them into a new file).

I am sure there is smomething simple that I am overlooking (equivalent to not having the computer turned on when complaining about it not working).

If I want to use Minion in my Word document then the only non type one choice I have seems to be the pro files.
