Hello, I was wondering if you know of any issues with indic scripts in the various versions of Word to help my friend with his problem, and any suitable workaround.
Thanks in advance Ananga MY FRIEND'S PROBLEM Subject: Persistent problem in Word Anangaji, I am still using using Word 2003, and frankly I don't want to upgrade, as I have a major irritation factor with the 2007 edition. But there is something in the old Word that irritates the hell out of me and seems intractable, and causes periodic problems. That is the program keeps thinking it's Arabic. I have absolutely no idea how the complex scripts gets that idea, but as soon as I put in any formatting, the Arabic virus enters the text. And, at any moment, when I am not looking, it will suddenly show a garbled form and run right to left. The only solution is to cut and paste and click on the clear formatting prompt. But even then, it sometimes comes back. One reason may be that I was putting "Sanskrit" as the language, even when the text was in transliteration. But I don't know why Devanagari etc. are lumped in with right-to-left scripts. Anyway, if you have any suggestions, this is really an irritating problem that creeps into many of my GGM documents." END OF MY FRIEND'S PROBLEM
