Two possibilities, Terry.

If you're not using a font management program (such as suitcase or 
masterjuggler) then the font resource ids may be the culprit. (But i 
doubt it).

The other possibility is that you've got the following scenario going:

You have (say) Times as your "default font" on the LCII. You write your 
text, take it to the Quadra, who's default font may be (say) Geneva.

Since you haven't actually *assigned* a font on the LCII (it's the 
*default*) when you open it on the Quadra, it uses it's default font 
(after all, that's what it's being told to do).

Email me with more detailed info if neither of these sounds right.
