Torque - twisting force, as in torque wrench, in this a context a euphemism for screw, y'all know the rest.

Also a rigid neck decoration, worn by pagan priestesses, this should be spelt as 'torc', but in fiction it's often spelt with 'que' which makes one wonder if writers/editors think they were an instrument of torture.

Red: thanks for the note, but of course, I already know how to do that. That's embedding fonts, not installing them "into" Word. I was able to access the Popsky font via WordArt, and it did bupkus. Just as if I simply opened up a document and started typing. Nix, nein, nada. I thought that perhaps someone meant something else, but they really just meant installing it as a Windows system font, which, naturally, I'd already done.

No, if I read some writer that writes "torc" as "torque," I stop reading. Not gonna support illiterate authors.

And nope, embedding the font into Word does not work. Or MS Publisher, or anything else. I have the Popsky font as graphics/SVG, and of course, I can lay it out that way, but...well, I don't wanna. MS says that they'll be supporting this type of font "soon," but, who knows what that means?

Thanks anyway!
