Hello,
I've spent several hours trying to solve this one. No
luck.
I installed a new font: Arial G1 Special.
Arial G1 Special shows up in the Font Menu and I can
create text using this font.
However! When I use this font word-wrapping no longer
works and spell check does not detect spelling mistakes
with words created using the font.
It's as if Word does not even recognize these words as
real words.
This does not happen with the standard fonts.
Thank you much!
Doug

How do you "create" such text: Direct formatting, style based?

Has the text in the new font an assigned language?

Robert,
Thanks, but that didn't work.
Other ideas?
Cheers.

Arial G1 Special is, I suspect, a "decorative" font. That is, Word views it
as a "symbol" font, which can be broken anywhere. Did you have some special
reason for needing this font? It sounds familiar to me (I feel I may have
had it at one time), but Google knows nothing about it. Ah, wait, that's
because it's actually Arial Special G1, which MS says is supplied with
Encarta Virtual Globe 99, Expedia Streets and Trips 2000, and MapPoint 2000.
From what I can find online, this font was designed to supply extra special
characters (such as accented characters) not found in common fonts (and it
is in fact identified as a symbol font). But I would guess that the Unicode
versions of most fonts nowadays would include the required characters, so
use of this font would be unnecessary.

Hi,
I have the following tables of figure:
figure 1
figure 2
figure 4
figure 5
...
Figure 3 is really there with caption figure 3. But the table does not
recognize it!
If i add a new caption to figure 3 it gets caption figure 4 and not 3!
Thanks for help
Regards
Georg

The caption (most probably along with the figure itself) is in a
textbox, and Word does not "see" those. Convert the textbox to a Frame
should help.
