I would like to see what a font looks like without having to select each and every one. In other words I would like to see what the font looks like as I scroll down the list with out selecting a font. If I am looking for a special looking font I would have to start at the top and click each one just to see what it looks like. This would be very time consuming. There must be a way to see what they all look like then select which one you like. Does anyone else know how to do this?

Additionally, go to the Options dialog's General page and check the box for Enable Live Preview. Then any text in the document that is selected will show the font that the mouse pointer points to in the Fonts dropdown; when you find one you like, click it to apply it to the text.
Word does display a preview of each font. Just click the arrow on the Font drop down on the Home tab.
