You might want to try Type Tamer by Impossible Software, which groups
fonts by families in the font menu and works well with Word 6.0.1. It also
has several other useful features. Here is the brief review from the Word
for Macintosh FAQ:

11.01 TypeTamer by Impossible Software

This multi-talented font utility works with Word and just about any 
other application that has a font menu, doing the job of several add-ons 
in a single Control Panel. In Word, it expands the usefulness of the 
Font menu by grouping fonts in families, showing type samples in three 
sizes (which you can change), indicating by icon which fonts are 
PostScript, TrueType, or Bitmap, and presenting you with a character 
chart large enough to actually see without squinting. If you miss the 
old freeware standby, PopChar (which became partially crippled in Word 
6), you'll love TypeTamer for the character chart alone. Within a few 
hours of installing this gem, we already knew it would be one of the 
must-have utilities we wouldn't think of running our Mac without. 
Suggested Retail Price: $59.95 from Impossible Software (714-470-4800).
