Custom Font in Microsoft Word

Post by font_is_good »

Hi,

I created a custom font. There is no problem using it everywhere, except in Microsoft word. The problem is Microsoft WORD will show the paragraph mark after you type, when I choose my custom font, it shows a strange image other than the one Microsoft WORD used to use. I believe it is a MS bug but how to get rid of this? Which special character I need to map this paragraph mark?

Thanks,
George

Suggested glyphs for use in Microsoft Office

Post by Erwin Denissen »

Microsoft suggests using several glyphs in OpenType fonts; I would suggest these glyphs for TrueType fonts as well.

Some useful topics related to recommended glyphs:

viewtopic.php?p=638#638

I'll mention the suggested glyphs from all these links in both help file and manual as soon as version v4.0 is released.
