You're working with old software, but if that doesn't bother you,
you *can* put fonts into word directly.  With the font/DA mover,
hold down the option key (or maybe command, I can't recall) when
you click on "open", and all files should show up. You can then
open the word application and put the fonts in it, if there's a
reason you don't want them in the system.

This was very useful years ago, when I was working on an SE with the
system on a small Ramdisk and word on a floppy... 
Boy, how long ago was that?
