SYMPTOMS
========
 
When you use the Word for MS-DOS MergePRD utility to add TrueType font
support to your printer driver, error messages such as the following
may occur if your TrueType font file does not adhere to TrueType font
file specifications:
 
   Table Missing.
 
   Error reading offset table entry.
 
After the error messages, MergePRD continues and appears to add the
TrueType font support, but the resulting .PRF file is incomplete and
MergePRD does not add the TrueType font to the printer driver (.PRD)
file.
 
CAUSE
=====
 
MergePRD searches for information in the TrueType font file. If the
information is not in the correct location, MergePRD does not add the
TrueType font to the printer driver.
 
RESOLUTION
==========
 
You should contact the provider of the TrueType font file for
assistance or additional information.
