Re: [Framers] Strange copy and past behaviour from Word
Hi Caroline, I am not sure without seeing the characters. You can change the default for the clipboard in the [Preferences] section of the maker.ini file: ClipboardFormatsPriorities=FILE, MIFW, MIF, RTF, OLE 2, META, EMF, DIB, BMP, UNICODE TEXT, TEXT The most useful thing is to have unicode text listed first, so that you don't have to use Paste Special.

Re: [Framers] Strange copy and past behaviour from Word
I'm at a loss. Would you be willing to send me directly a Word file with the problematic text? It's hard to diagnose without that. A look at the MIF file might provide a clue, although at this point I'm not sure what you'd need to look for. Was it showing up as text question marks or those black diamonds with the white question mark inside?

Re: [Framers] Strange copy and past behaviour from Word
What was in place of the question marks when it was in Word? Some things don't have exact text equivalents, or the font you are using in FrameMaker may not contain the symbol you used.
