The problem is that hex 251 (decimal 593) should give you a "script a" (fat-a as linguists sometimes call it). It should not give you a check mark or a u-circumflex. If your e-mail client displays it properly, it should be ɑ. The reason I need this is for a web site that some other students and I am creating: http://ipa4linguists.pbwiki.com/FrontPage Go to the Linux or Windows pages and click on the OOo link. I haven't changed the page yet to reflect that it doesn't work on OOo/Windows. I'm hoping I won't have to, but so far it appears that there is no solution. I should also file a bug report. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
