Adrian,

Also I've discovered that the word "and" is replaced by a circumflex ("^") and 
the word "or" by an upside-down circumflex (not sure how to achieve that on my 
keyboard). Possibly other "mathematical" or "logical" words are replaced too.

The following, for example: "overline {these words are over-lined}" comes out 
looking like a formula:

                       are
    these words---------
                     - lined

where it is obviously interpreting "are over-lined" as "the value of the 
variable "are" divided by the negative of the variable named "lined"".

So I'm getting less and less sure about this technique to solve the OP's 
question :-(

Regards, Harold
