I have that document, but I can't find it; Lots of mention of "special
characters", but nothing on searching for non-printing characters, or is
the only way to do this is with hexadecimal codes and \xXXXX ?

In Word, I am able to easily convert an asci only document into formated

I am trying to find how to do this in OpenOffice, as it is a frequent
task. I've tried using the "special characters" , but I do not see
anything indicating what to use for the entry.
I seem to have missed something.
