I've noticed some of the fonts in my Microsoft Office Apps seem to have a different name and preview compared to when you hover over it. And when I use these fonts, their true name appears on the box showing the font name, but when I click the drop down menu, it shows a different name. How do I fix this?
For reference, the font I'm hovering to is called Amasis MT Pro. But instead of the actual Amasis font name and preview, it shows Algerian instead.

Hi Ryan,
Thank you for the reply.
Since you mentioned that the problem also happens on other Office applications, please try to fix Office client, by performing a repair. Try a quick repair first, and if that doesn't work, try the online repair.
Best regards,
Jazlyn
Hi. Quick repair didn't work but online repair did. Thank you so much!
Hello. Yes, it's the same with MS Word, Excel, and Publisher. I think it's an isolated problem only to the MS apps because I tried it on the Windows Paint App and AutoCAD and I couldn't find the Amasis font. So I think this must have been an optional font that you could download and install directly on the MS Apps.
There's a problem either with PowerPoint's font menu or Windows font information. That's why 2 instances of Algerian appear in your font menu instead of 1. Are you having similar problems in other Office apps? Other non-Office apps?
