The Tool Bar has gone, the window shows only the name of a highlighted font, and the bottom row shows a panel which I can use to scroll through and select a font. Ironically, the regular Font panel is in Keynote which I rarely use. I have tried re-installing the application - with no joy. Help anyone?

Hurrah! I tried reinstallation again after using Spotlight to find and clear out every bit of the existing iWork (a bit stressful especially because 'pages' brings to light all sorts of non-iWork stuff). Lo and behold the Font panel is back again. The previous one must have got corrupted.
I don't think you needed to reinstall iWork to fix this problem.
From what you described, you had only resized the Font Panel to its minimum size. All you needed to do was click on the bottom right corner and drag it to be a greater size and the toolbar, etc would have come back.
You can try this with Pages now. Just drag the right bottom corner of the Font Panel to make it about 2 lines high and about 1 - 2 inches in width. The Font Panel will then contain 3 popup menus: Family, Typeface and Size. But if you resize the Font Panel again to its original size its contents will revert to normal.
