Wordperfect endnote conversion problems
I am working on a doc that was created in WordPerfect, and then converted to
Word. It is manifesting all kinds of odd errors and inconsistencies, particularly in regard to the endnote numbers and text. I'm using Word2K with Win98SE. Here are some of the problems. 1.) When I put the cursor in endnote text, the formatting toolbar displays TimesNewRoman (TNR) 10pt., but it displays the text in Arial 12pt (which is what I want it to be). 2.) When I type text in the endnotes, it creates and displays it as TNR 10-pt. The only way to change it is to select all and change it to Arial 12pt. It will then display all text as I selected but still shows TNR10pt in the toolbar. 3.) Beginning with endnote 8, the endnote reference in the body of the article is displayed as a single TNR10pt "0" (zero). This continues through until note 24 (all zeroes). The rest resume a correct numbering sequence. The corresponding endnote reference number in the notes themselves are correct (for the most part [see #4 below]: i.e., 9, 10, etc.). 4.) One note number is omitted (#7) and one is doubled (#24). 5.) I've tried inserting additional notes or deleting one, but it doesn't correct the sequencing or zero problem. 6.) The body text of the doc doesn't have the same font errors, only that the endnote reference markers are displayed as zeroes. Does anyone have any ideas about how to correct this problem? Should I request another copy of the doc and try to convert it myself (that would be the last resort, since I've finished editing it otherwise)? It was sent to someone else first, and then to me. I don't know who converted it to Word before I received it. It will go to the layout designer who uses a Mac program (Quark Express, I think). I'm worried he'll have problems in that conversion if it's messed up right now. Thanks for any help you can offer. |
