If Word 4.0 does indeed exhibit the behavior you say (fonts get scrambled when you move to a different Mac) then it renders the program absolutely unusable for every situation where a document might possibly be used on more than one system. Which means it renders the program absolutely unusable for almost everybody. I can't believe even Microsoft would release software with that serious a bug in it.
