   FontDemo shows you all the fonts that are available in   
   the system, meaning all the fonts that applications can   
   use. So yes, if "word for beos" existed, it could make   
   use of all the fonts you see in FontDemo. Gobe Productive   
   should be able to make use of all the same fonts that   
   you can see in FontDemo. Have you tried it?
