Problems Downloading Forms

[jaideeguy]

The links provided in the pinned topic are great, but when using the 'word doc', it doesn't work and it seems that I've had this problem in the past and just assumed that it was my version of MS Word, but checked with my neighbor and she has the same problem.

Same same with the Royal Thai Link, but they do offer a PDF download option which gets you a blank form that looks like the official form. I would prefer to DL the MS Word form, as it can be filled out on my pc, which is much more legible than my sloppy penmanship.

Any hints on how to do this?? or any other links that work with word??

Please provide the link that does not work. I use word downloads all the time without issue (but just TM7 and TM47). I just posted this link five minutes ago and can confirm it opens fine in Word 2007

I just tried the link that you provided Lopburi and still got the same results.....misaligned text and the size is too large....prints the same way. Must be my antique version of Word?? I am mostly interested in TM& and TM47. Gotta update my OS.

Thanks for the feedback..........

I've always had the problem with the link to the word document (screwed up text), on three different computers. Use MS Office 2003, but the US version. I use the PDF which works normally.

Do you have the below font installed? Believe that might be your problem if not.

Sorry lb, but how do I install the font that you provided??

Interesting that others are having this problem too. I thought that it was just me.

I'm still running a bootl#g version of XP and may have to upgrade. Anyone know what version of Office is bundled with windows 7??

It will depend on your operating system - just Google install fonts for what you are using.

For Windows 7 as below.

To install a font

1. Open Fonts by clicking the Start button , clicking Control Panel, clicking Appearance and Personalization, and then clicking Fonts.

2. Click File, and then click Install New Font.

   If you don’t see the File menu, press ALT.

3. In the Add Fonts dialog box, under Drives, click the drive where the font that you want to install is located.

4. Under Folders, double-click the folder containing the fonts that you want to add.

5. Under List of fonts, click the font that you want to add, and then click Install.

You can also just download it then double click on it to install (Windows 7)

Using XP, not enough memory for windows 7

It appears you can just drag and drop into your fonts folder in XP per below.

You can also drag OpenType, TrueType, Type 1, and raster fonts from another location to add them to the Fonts folder. This works only if the font is not already in the Fonts folder.
