If I quit and reenter Word, the problem reappears - Adobe Garamond Pro appears only in bold and bold italic.Īnother curious thing: The font menu that appears under Format->Font (rather than the one that appears in the ribbon) shows 'Adobe Garamond Pro' as a choice the first time Word is run, but after that shows 'Adobe Garamond Pro Bold' instead. In a brand new account, the first time I run Word the fonts are just fine. Has anyone seen a problem like this and found a solution?Įdited to add: This is under macOS 10.15.5.Īdded 8/13/20: I've now tested with a new account, but it's not revealing much, at least to me. I have several files very carefully formatted using Adobe Garamond Pro, so I'm not eager to change the font to something that's working properly, then have to redo the formatting. Other similar fonts work fine, for example, Garamond Premier Pro. I've restored a previous version of Word from Time Machine. I've tried disabling and re-enabling the font.

I've tried clearing the system font caches and Word's font cache. The same problem appears with Adobe Caslon Pro. This behavior appeared only recently, as it was noticed first today in a file that uses the font and was last edited without problem on Aug 3.

No other app seems to have this problem, and Font Book reports no problems with the font. It's just in the text that it's misbehaving. It's as if the program can't see the regular (and regular italic) styles, except that Word itself lists all four styles in the font menu and displays the name of the font using the regular variant. I'm having a mysterious problem with Word (version 16.40) and the Adobe Garamond Pro font: Four variants of the font are installed (regular, italic, bold, and bold italic), but if I select regular, Word instead uses bold.
