Displaying Other Languages in Word 2003
I am a technical writer working on a project for my company that requires me
to insert a statement that has been translated into 14 different languages into a Word document. I received all of the translations in a PDF. Most of the languages use symbols. Some of the languages are Arabic, Armenian, Chinese, Japanese, Persian, Russian and Korean. When I tried to copy the text from the PDF into Word 2003 none of the translations pasted appropriately. The problem is that I have to insert the various customer service numbers that my company has into each of these translations (we have 5 different customer service lines). I could make image files of the PDF translations, but the imaging making process would be a time consuming process. Has anyone ever encountered this before? Does anyone have any suggestions for making this work in Word. Thanks. -- S.Forte |

Is there any chance you can get the Word file the pdf was created
from? _Possibly_ there's something in Adobe Acrobat Pro that could deal with this, but I doubt it.

Do you have the Arabic, Armenian, Chinese, Japanese, Persian, Russian and
Korean fonts installed? -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org SForte wrote: I am a technical writer working on a project for my company that requires me to insert a statement that has been translated into 14 different languages into a Word document.

All those characters are included with some of the omnibus fonts that
are installed with Windows or that are added when the IMEs are activated. The most likely problem is that there may not be a way for the language information to be extracted from a pdf.
