I then applied the Times New Roman font (just in case a font change triggered anything at all) and saved it. Attached. As you can see, WPMac seems to have made no effort at all to match the Mac's WorldScript fonts to the DOS character sets. This corresponds to behavior I noticed before. WPMac seems to ignore any characters in an imported file that aren't part of the DOS symbol set. However, it doesn't change them either, I think. When I covert the attached file to .odt using writerperfect, the symbol sets seem to be preserved. Does this help at all? I'll try some other things later. Edward
