[Casper] Office 2004

[Andy Hakala]

We have had pretty good luck with moving our fonts to a common place on the system (/Library/Fonts) and then getting rid of the "dofonts" file located in the MS Office 2004 folder. This stops the fonts from loading for each user and just uses the fonts that are located in the shared folder. Here are the steps that we use to do this...


1)      Take a snapshot

2)      Install Office, run all updates and launch the program.

3)      Move the newly installed fonts from the /Users/username/library/font folder to the /Library/Fonts folder.

4)      Delete the 'dofonts' file from MS 2004 folder.

5)      Take the final snapshot and create the package.
