Well, to  summarize  comments  to  my  question  as to if a font, 
installed in a DOCUMENT file, should show up in the Font menu:

Several people  correctly  indicated  that  the  Mac searches for 
resources in the  order  of Application, then System, and that it 
SHOULD work if the  font  were installed in the APPLICATION (note 
this is NOT the DOCUMENT,  which  is  not  searched automatically 
(nor explicitly by MacWrite)).  However, nobody indicated if they 
had TRIED this.

So,  I  did.    I installed an obscure  font  into  the  MacWrite 
application  using  ResEdit.  This font was NOT installed  in  the 
System.

When  I  then brought up MacWrite, the font WAS available.    So, 
we've counted the teeth of the horse...

Thanks for the responses.

Jeff
