Mactype performs very perfectly in Excel, but failed in Word.

Mactype version: 2021.1

Office version: Microsoft 365

Excel uses gdi to do its rendering while word is with direct write. That's the difference.

Dear snowie,

Thanks for your prompt reply! Are there any ways to render Word like Excel?

@siran1996 You can try to enable DirectWrite in your config file.

There is no way to force word to use GDI like excel except for downgrading it to Office 2007, which is highly unrecommended.

Office 2010 can still use Mactype and this is the last version that can use Mactype as far as I know.
