How to convert squares into normal letters as it has been before .
I have copied the word document to CD then back to HDD but the content of the
document completely changed. It is just squares instead of characters. What should I do to convert them back? |

Hi Vladok,
This can happen if you were using a 'symbols' based font, where the characters look like text but are actually graphics of each character (these usually show symptoms of wrapping at the end of lines in the middle of a Word (not hypenated) and not being something that spell check 'sees'). See if the information and the macro in this article helps http://support.microsoft.com/default...us;290978&FR=1 ======= "Vladok" wrote in message ...

It didn't help. I've done everything as it is in the instruction, run the
macro but nothing happened. I tried to highlight a part of the text but no use. Is there another key to the problem, please help "Bob Buckland ?:-)" wrote: Hi Vladok, This can happen if you were using a 'symbols' based font, where the characters look like text but are actually graphics of each character (these usually show symptoms of wrapping at the end of lines in the middle of a Word (not hypenated) and not being something that spell check 'sees').
