Microsoft Works for Windows Question

Hello net,

I am considering buying Works for Windows for home use. One of the 
important features MUST be that I can specify user defined .FON font
files in the word processor at least.

I tried Word for Windows 1.1 here at work and after many efforts could
not get it to recognize these fonts. I did what the manual said and
still no luck. I was able to do it in MSWrite :-(. I could buy word
for windows for home but would rather have the spreadsheet and database
also. 

So, oh net, do you think that Works for windows CAN USE my own fonts?

If it can't then no point in buying it. Any other ideas or comments 
appreciated. I need a definite answer as at $125 a copy if it doesn't
work... (arg, grrr, %$%$^). 

Thanks in advance.

Spiros
