The short answer is that you don't. The longer answer is that you *may* be
able to create a combination of characters using EQ fields, which you could then use as formatted autocorrect entries. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org aswalleh wrote: How do I change the color of diacitics in word 2007 ? |

Under Options Advanced Show Document Content, there's a pair of
checkboxes labeled "Diacritics" and "Use this color for diacritics." Do you know what they do? (I wonder what, exactly, aswalleh wants the diacritics to do -- make them the same as the letters? make them different from the letters? in which alphabets/languages?)

Hmmm. There are no such options in my copy of Word 2007 and the only
language I have occasion to use which requires diacritics is Greek. I can see no way to colour them differently from the associated characters - apart from that I suggested. However, you are the language expert, what language(s) is your copy of Word set up for when these options are displayed? -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org grammatim wrote: Under Options Advanced Show Document Content, there's a pair of checkboxes labeled "Diacritics" and "Use this color for diacritics."

The only setting up for languages that I have is that various
keyboards are enabled -- at the moment, (in order in the popup) Greek, English, Syriac, Amharic, Arabic, Oriya, Chinese (Trad), Chinese (Simp), Tibetan, Mongolian, and BabelStone. Maybe it refers to the little characters placed alongside Chinese characters to assist with pronunciation (in Japanese they're called furigana) -- most often, those extra "typography" features have to do with Japanese (sort of like headers -- if you've ever turned Japanese on, they never go away).. aswalleh's name suggests that he's looking for diacritics in Arabic or Persian; that might mean the vowel symbols that are usually not used in writing ordinary text. But we ought to find out whether he wants diacritics to be the same as or different from the letters! Do you use Polytonic Greek, or Modern Greek? On May 27, 10:51*am, "Graham Mayor" wrote: Hmmm.
