Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
Processor: intel
I have been using Word Vista on my MacBook happily for 3 or 4 months and in normal type, when a '-' is inserted, the system has always automatically lengthened the minus sign to a longer dash (an en dash?) as soon as the space after the following word is entered. It has suddenly stopped doing that and I am left with minimalist minus signs even in updates of documents where such signs have automatically been lengthened in the past. I can find nothing in autocorrect etc where this function is mentioned. What has happened, please? Thanks for any help.
