Footer is in German
I received a word document and the footer is displaying in German. Page 1 of
3 says Seite 1 von 3. When I look at the AutoText options on the header/footer toolbar they are in German as well. My document is typed in English and when in the header all of the autotext options are in English. Any ideas? |

Hi Erika,
Select the text in the footer and change the language to English (Tools Set language). Then you should get the English AutoText options.

Can language be set different for each document? I assumed the language
setting was a default for all documents. "Erika" wrote: I received a word document and the footer is displaying in German. Page 1 of 3 says Seite 1 von 3.

No, the language can be different for each word, even for each single
character. As you start typing in a new document, Word takes the default language from your Windows regional settings (which is a pain, as many users think). Else, it'll take it from the style, or from whatever you've set manually in "Tools Set language". If you have "Detect language automatically" checked in that dialog, Word will try to determine the language automatically from its dictionaries. That can be a terrible nuisance, so I always turn that off. Regards, Klaus "Erika" wrote: Can language be set different for each document?
