Word 2010 text colour

[Marsh12]

I can't get on-screen coloured text. I've followed the standard instructions and I can get highlight colour but not text colour. This also applies to text copied and pasted form websites.

In both cases it prints out in the colour I changed it to but WYSIWYG isn't working.

Can anyone help, please?

One possible cause of the problem is that 'high contrast' is selected within your Accessibility Options.

Go to Accessibility Options (from the Control Panel) and click the Display tab. Make sure that the 'Use High Contrast' box is not checked and then click OK.

On the Tool bar have you clicked 'A' (font colour) ? It may be hidden beyond the arrows on extreme right.
