I was wondering how I can have MS Word print the fonts
that my printer has embedded?

I want to use the DRAFT font but it is not listed as a
font in Word. However when I do the printers self test it
lists DRAFT, ROMAN, and SANS SERIF. ROMAN and SERIF print
like the COURIER font. I need DRAFT because the letters do
not have "hats" (I hope thats the correct term).

I updated my drivers and called Epson Tech support. They
said Word treats all fonts like a graphic. How can I force
Word to print the font that I need?

Thanks
 
You can try installing a "Generic / Text Only" printer and print to that. No
guarantees though. The results can be unpredictable, but that's the only way
it might work. Windows treats all printing like a bitmap, as the tech told
you.
