When substituting fonts, WordPerfect changes the [Font...] code (visible in the Reveal Codes window) to reflect both font names. The font name that WordPerfect used to replace the original font appears first, followed by the original font in square brackets. For information about Reveal Codes, see “Using Reveal Codes.”
