Hello all,

I've got a large document that has many symbols in different fonts. I would
like to convert all non-Symbol font character/symbols to the Symbol font. Can
anyone help?

Do all of the symbols exist in the Symbol font?

I'll have to assume that all of the symbols you need actually appear as
characters in the Symbol font (which is not really a very extensive
collection -- there are many more in the large Unicode fonts such as Arial
Unicode MS and Lucida Sans Unicode).

If you can locate what you need, then the article at
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/MacrosVBA/...aceSymbols.htm describes how to
make the changes.

I should have been a bit more clear as to what i'm trying to do. My document
contains for example the "greaterthanequalto", "lessthanequalto" and the "mu"
symbols in Arial, Time New Roman or Helvitica font. I want to be able to
convert all these symbols to be Symbol font. In other words, i want all my
symbols in my document to be converted to the "Symbol Font" not the unicode
symbols. Your help is greatly appreciated!!!

No, most of the symbols were inserted in Arial, Times New Roman, Helvetica
etc.... I want all of these symbols to be converted to the Symbol Font. Your
help is greatly appreciated!

You misunderstood my question. Jay has already provided the answer you want.
My question was to ascertain that the symbols you are trying to convert have
equivalents in the Symbol font. Obviously you couldn't replace them with
Symbol characters if the Symbol font did not contain the characters you
need.

Hi Omar,

The macro UnicodeToSymbolFont below should search for all Unicode =
characters that are also in the Symbol font, and replace them. The other =
macros below are called from that macro and therefore are needed, too.

If you want the symbols to act as if they had been inserted from the =
"Insert Symbol" dialog, you can run the macro "SymbolsProtect" from =
this thread:
http://groups-beta.google.com/group/.../browse_frm/t=
hread/7762b16e4666f49e/30cb8416aee6b859?tvc=3D1

For the other direction (Symbol font to Unicode), I've posted a macro =
he
http://www.google.com/groups?selm=3D...ews.t-online.=
com&rnum=3D4

Regards,
Klaus

I should have been a bit more clear as to what i'm trying to do. My document
contains for example the "greaterthanequalto", "lessthanequalto" and the "mu"
symbols in Arial, Time New Roman or Helvitica font. I want to be able to
convert all these symbols to be Symbol font. In other words, i want all my
symbols in my document to be converted to the "Symbol Font" not the unicode
symbols. Your help is greatly appreciated!!!

Hello all,

I've got a large document that has many symbols in different fonts. I
would like to convert all non-Symbol font character/symbols to the
Symbol font. Can anyone help?

Omar Menjivar

I'll have to assume that all of the symbols you need actually appear as
characters in the Symbol font (which is not really a very extensive
collection -- there are many more in the large Unicode fonts such as Arial
Unicode MS and Lucida Sans Unicode).

If you can locate what you need, then the article at
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/MacrosVBA/...aceSymbols.htm describes how to
make the changes.
