Fair enough and thanks for the response. I'll admit, after spending too much time on this issue (neither IT nor fonts are our primary concern and we must make our paying jobs a priority - these things just get in the way) and being pinballed around by Apple, Microsoft and Adobe I'm a bit short fused. I'm not sure where to turn to at Microsoft to get an answer as to whether this is even in the radar for them. Is Adobe pushing this issue with them? I would imagine that if certain fonts have problems with style linking in Windows OS, that Adobe would be pushing this issue to resolution in order to truly make the fonts cross-platform.

Thomas, it would be very helpful to put this in the OT manual. Part of the problem as to why we cannot use style linking is that the faux bold in MS Office becomes Semi bold in InDesign. And, unfortunately (or fortunately?), Dominic, I don't have access to a PC at the moment, but we're still looking into what problems this causes for us. I'm a bit calmer now too.
