Overstrike Characters
How can I compose a new character by have one character print onver another?
In WordPerfect there is an Overstrike feature. In Church liturgies the are two symbols which represent the words Versicle and Response. They are capital letters V and R with a forward slash typed over them. Of course, in older printed books they are fancier than that, with the forward slacy have some flair, but I would be happy to create a more simple form using whatever typeface I'm working with. |

Overstrike Characters
Use an EQ field to layout the overstrike as you wish then save it as an
autotext or autocorrect entry for ease of re-use. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Patrick Hunt wrote: How can I compose a new character by have one character print onver another?
