Guest guest Posted March 23, 2004 Report Share Posted March 23, 2004 Dandavats. A friend has Word for Mac files and has saved them as Word Doc. and RTF and given them to me to layout on my IBM. The font he has used is Gaudiya. I can open the files but the letters having diacritic marks appear as squares or other characters and the italicized words appear incorrectly. Any tips on how to get things right? Thanks, Your servant, Kurma Rupa dasa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First thing is to see if Gaudiya font is installed on your system. Go to c:\windows\fonts and see if the font is there. Or otherwise ask your friend to send the font to you. There have always been problems on these cross platform issues. You can also try converting the Mac fonts to PC fonts. Thanking you, Your servant Bharata dasa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
