I'm on Windows XP Home, SP2. I have installed a new family of fonts via the installer in the control panel. Here are the fonts as they show up in the fonts folder:
AGaramond Bold
AGaramond BoldItalic
AGaramond BoldItalicOSF
AGaramond BoldOSF
AGaramond Italic
AGaramond ItalicOSF
AGaramond Regular
AGaramond RegularSC
AGaramond SemiBold
AGaramond SemiBoldItalic
AGaramond SemiBoldItalicOSF
AGaramond SemiBoldSC
AGaramond Titling
AGaramond ALTItalic
AGaramond ALTRegular
AGaramond ExpBold
AGaramond ExpItalic
AGaramond ExpBoldItalic
AGaramond ExpRegular
AGaramond ExpSemiBold
AGaramond ExpSemiBoldItalic

But if I open Windows Word, I only see: AGaramond Bold, AGaramond Regular, AGaramond BoldOSF, and these following, but they look like symbols rather than type: AGaramondAlt , AGaramondAlt Italic, AGaramondExp, AGaramondExp Bold. In Adobe Illustrator CS2 and Adobe InDesign CS2, these fonts don't show up at all. I had also copied them into C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CS2\Fonts and C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS2\Fonts, but that didn't help.

Well, it may be that the files are corrupted - where did you get them from? You don't see a lot of Type 1 fonts these days.

In your original post, you said "these following... look like symbols rather than type: AGaramondAlt," etc.

Take a look at Download Adobe Garamond Regular Alternate - Linotype.com - this is what Garamond Alt should look like.

How many fonts do you have installed on your machine at the present?
