Another solution is to always follow with a comma, which is called for in many style guides, as in: The accused was released on his personal recognizance, i.e., without bail. When I type that, the "i" is capitalized, but then returns to lower case after a comma is typed. -Rob > Hagar > > > Le 18/01/2013 21:33, Megan Pedone a écrit : > > >> >> I don't think it's a bug, and I don't want to subscribe to anything to >> report it, but it's incredibly frustrating that the only way I could use >> "i.e." in my document was to cut and paste it from a different >> word-processing program.
