Well, you have found one of the "famous" microsoft word problems.Microsoft 
"refuses" to follow established guidelines and use font names, but instead
insists on using font numbers...which is the cause of your conflict. What
you can do is trash your screen fonts from the SE/30 and replace them with
the screen fonts from the IIcx....this should make things appear ok on the 
IIcx... Whats happening is that the font number that is assigned to bookman
by your se/30 is assigned to palo alto by the IIcx..If microsoft would
follow the guidelines this wouldn't happen...Good Luck....Barry
