Font Pali Times Ameco
Thank you.
In my Word Office I hasn't Pali Times Ameco and I Installed it later. I followed the hints but I can't write the word with special typeface. My steps: Find Dialog, More, Format. Then I can take the typeface Pali Times Ameco but I can't choose the Font. If I choose Pali Times Ameco as typeface it's the same because I can't write the word exactly. "Suzanne S.

Font Pali Times Ameco
From where did you obtain this font? I can find no on-line references to it
other than your questions about it. Word will only display fonts that the currently active printer is capable of printing. Screen fonts and badly formed printer fonts will not be available. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Pietro wrote: Thank you.

Font Pali Times Ameco
OK I downloaded and installed all four versions of the font (standard,
italic, bold and bold italic) which appear to be a normal truetype font very similar in appearance to Cambria, indistinguishable from Time New Roman at normal magnification and behaves as you might expect. It appears as a usable font in Word 2007, and works normally in the find dialog (CTRL+F) when applied to the searched text. What *exactly* is it that you are unable to do with this font - list the steps. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Pietro wrote: From he http://hal9000.cisi.unito.it/wf/DIPA...-di2/index.htm I can print pages with this character.

You can Copy the word you're looking for (if necessary, type it in your document, copy it, and delete it) and Paste it into the Find box. If the script is one encoded in Unicode, you probably won't need to specify the font, but if it's Pali specifically, it's coded either as some other Indic script, or in the Private Use Area, or as a-zA-Z, and you should also choose the font as Suzanne explained. |

If the font is installed (in the Windows Fonts folder), and the active
printer is one that is capable of printing, you should be able to select it in any Font dialog or dropdown. Can you see it in the Symbol dialog (Insert | Symbol | More Symbols...)? -- Suzanne S.

Font Pali Times Ameco
I just googled the font name (it would be useful to have a font for
the standard Buddhist canon!), and the only relevant results are this thread and another one in an Italian-language newsgroup asking the same question. I wonder if something has gotten renamed somewhere along the way. On Jan 2, 12:56*pm, "Suzanne S.

Font Pali Times Ameco
I see the same thing you do. So I reduced the search to "Pali Times" and
found http://www.buddhanet.net/ftp_pali.htm, which lists Pali Palatino and also a Palimacro.zip file (either of which might be relevant). Then I tried "Pali Ameco" and got directed to http://www.skepticfiles.org/mys4/skedamar.htm, which doesn't seem to have the text quoted in the Google search results (an A.M.E.C.O. Foundation and reference to "Pali and English chanting"); there are evidently also several companies named Ameco, at least one of them in China ("Times Ameco" brings up a lot of those). Combining "font" with any of these searches just keeps hitting the same Italian thread about Pali Times Ameco. -- Suzanne S.

Font Pali Times Ameco
Thanks for your time.
The Font is in Windows Fonts Folder and I can print a document with this special typefaces. I can add Symbol as you said and this surprised me for I posted my question here. Maybe I was unclear. In a Word Page if I want to put a special typeface from Pali Times Ameco I choose the typeface and then I have to use a special combination of keys. Ctrl+ or Ctrl+Alt+. When I want to find a word with this typefaces I don't know how I have to write this character in the Find Box. I followed your hints but If I follow Find-More-Format I can change the typeface but I don't know how I can insert the special typefaces. Please, help me! "Suzanne S.

Font Pali Times Ameco
You should be able to use the same keyboard shortcuts in the Find dialog. Or
you can copy a character and paste it into the Find dialog using Ctrl+V. Or you can get the Unicode number of the character by selecting it and pressing Alt+X (Alt+X again to toggle back) or by selecting it and going to the Symbol dialog, where it will be selected, and noting the Unicode number. You can then use this in the Find dialog by entering ^uxxxx (though I find that this doesn't always work). -- Suzanne S.

Font Pali Times Ameco
The poster who uses the screen name "grammatim" has contacted me and asked
me to post the following information: "I downloaded the font from the website provided, and it turns out that it's a very old, pre-Unicode transliteration font, presumably used (only) at the University of Turin, with accented letters placed in fairly arbitrary cells of the old extended ASCII group of characters (0-255) -- it contains no Pali characters at all. "I strongly urge Pietro to use the accented letters built into any of the standard Windows fonts, such as Times New Roman, so that his work will be portable to other people's computers." -- Suzanne S.
