Font list mirrored

This is a screenshot of the font list in MS Word on my Mac. Any idea how to fix the ones that are mirrored?

Pages missing fonts message: can it be turned off? Pages gives me 2 separate messages about missing fonts when I open work-related Word documents. Most of the time, I do not care about these fonts--I would be happy to see these documents in plain text with only table formatting preserved, because I just need to review the content. Pages does seem to be automatically converting to another font that works just fine for that, so I am not losing content by this. Can I tell Pages to stop cluttering my screen with these unneeded and repetitive messages, especially when it's the 10th document opened from the same sender with the same fonts missing within the same session? OS 12.6 Monterey, Pages 12.1

Pages displaying fonts with question marks I have only installed one extra font on my system, and pages is displaying it (and other fonts which I don't know which they are) as a box with question marks. When I select the Montserrat font for example, the letter spacing also does not work. (see screenshots)

Delete fonts - how is this done? I have at least 80 fonts that are not functional. They all are listed with six rectangles [] [] [] [] [] [] beside their font name. How can they be deleted or uninstalled? My Photoshop is on a Mac. I have opened Font Book within Launchpad and searched for the dysfunctional fonts but they do not appear there. Yet they do appear in the Photoshop & Word font drop-down font menu. I searched for the names of the dysfunctional fonts in fonts.adobe.com and they do not exist there. I have not been able to delete them within Word, Photoshop, or Font Book or anything else. There are so many dysfunctional fonts that it really complicates efforts to select a usable font. Is there a way to remove or delete unwanted fonts?
