The information in this article applies to:
When you insert an image or type text in a new typeface in FrontPage Editor, the image or text jumps to a position much lower on the page than it should.
One or more of the Times New Roman font files may be corrupt (these files are located in the \Windows\Fonts folder).
To work around this problem, replace the Times New Roman font files in the \Windows\Fonts files that are not corrupt.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article.
These font files contain equations that describe the various aspects of the font such as baseline, ascender, descender. When some aspect of the file is corrupt, FrontPage Editor may not interpret the size of the font correctly (for example, it may appear that the font is much taller than it actually is); therefore, any text of a different typeface or a bottom-aligned image will be placed below this font because FrontPage Editor interprets the corrupt font as being the tallest element on the current line.
Times New Roman is selected by Windows browsers to render the default Normal style font of HTML documents.
