I had this happen with some Word Perfect files that I converted to Word
(2000). Some text converted to squares. I had to select the text and change
the font through Format-font or through the Format-Styles-Format-Font...

The documents could be corrupt. Have you tried Open and Repair?

Note that *saving* to removable media is risky, if that's what you have been
doing. Copying (via Windows Explorer) is the way to do it.
