• Split apart a font family so that Word can see all three styles | LinkedIn
  It is the font foundry not Microsoft that is influencing the behaviour of the fonts. What the font foundries tend to do is to have standard pairings in the font - so it is likely that the light is paired with the medium or the bold so you would only see two fonts in your font list. Whereas when you look in the font folder in control panel you should see all three fonts. So if say 35 and 65 were paired you would see Helvetica 35 light and Helvetica 45 Roman in your font listing and NOT see Helvetica 65 which but when you have type in 35 light and then select bold button behind the scenes Office will apply 65 cut. For a font that is not paired, the 45 in this example, when you click the bold button Office thickens the type slightly and that's it.
