Some Styles of Installed Fonts Are Missing or "Overlap"

$

I recently purchased a full set of Futura for a class design project, largely to get a variety of different weights and styles (the project is typography based). I took delivery of the fonts as a set of 21 TTF files, but when I try to install them on Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit, only 6 or 7 styles appear in Illustrator or Word when I try to use the font.

I found this (below) which appears to be the same problem, but there's no evidence of a fix here and I really don't have the option of giving up on the font - the assignment gave us a small number of fonts to choose from, and Futura is far and away the most interesting option.

Has anyone else encountered this issue and found a workaround? (Or failing that, does anyone know where I can get a piece of software that will let me edit the typeface name so that the different styles don't group?)
