    Default Converting English to French, having font issues

    Hello all,

    A quick question. I have an English Director File that I am converting into
    french content. I am using Arial as the font but it seems that when I copy the
    text from a word document with all the formatting and French characters, it
    eliminates them in Director???

    Any Ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    - Corby

    You cannot copy and paste the formatting from a Word doc as Director doesn't
    understand how word docs are formatted (neither do most apps) so you will need
    to re-format the text once into director.

    The font issue is different though. Try copying the text into a simple 3rd
    party text editor (like Notepad) then into Director, you should at least get
    the correct glyphs.
