Avoid conflicts by specifying Web fonts in Word

Word makes publishing content to the Web easy. Simply save the Word file as an html document to generate (practically) Web-ready content, but that single step alone won’t perfectly transform the file. For instance, you’ll want to choose your font(s) carefully when publishing content to the Web because, typically, a web page supports only two fonts: one for normal text; one for monospace text. It’s best if you control the fonts Word uses when preparing content for the Web, as follows:
Choose Options from the Tools menu. On the General tab, click the Web Options option. Office 2007 users should click the Office button and then click Word Options (in the bottom right corner), choose Advanced in the left pane, click Web Options (scroll all the way down) and then click the Fonts tab.
Select a font and size from the Proportional Font and Size controls, respectively. Choose the font you want to use as the default for normal text.
Select a font and size for displaying monospace text from the Fixed-width Font dropdown list and Size controls, respectively.
Click OK twice.
This simple extra step will save you time later because you won’t have to adjust font face or size after the content is published. Your Webmaster or site editor will appreciate your efforts too.
Create a shortcut to your favorite font in Word
You like to use the Comic Sans MS font in your Word publications, but you'd rather not navigate the long list of fonts in the Formatting toolbar every time you need to use it. Rather than clicking through the toolbars and menus to find your favorite font, you can create a keyboard shortcut—and never have to search for the font again. Follow these steps:
Go to Tools Customize.
On the Commands tab, click the Keyboard button.
Under Categories, click Fonts.
Under Fonts, click Comic Sans MS.
Put your cursor in the Press New Shortcut Key text box.
Press [Alt]CS.
Click the Assign button.
Click Close twice.
Now when you want to apply the Comic Sans MS font to your text, select the text and press [Alt]CS.
Note that these shortcut keys may be adapted to whichever key you wish—not just those chosen here—but take care not to use a shortcut combination that has already been assigned, such as for Replace, Paste, and Find
