Need to know more about your system - 6.0.5 -> 7.1 ???

Also, I know there is (or was) a Word 4.0D for Academic editions,  and there is a true type init (extension) which is certainly required for system 6.x, and may even be required for older versions of Word under sys 7.

I hate to say it,  but to use True Type you need to either upgrade (your system, your Word, or both) or at least get ahold of the INIT.
