Text box is not Unicode enabled?

S

searchbot

Hi, I have the same problem. I put some Greek characters, eg Σ, into
a textbox and I can't change the typeface to any other than Arial, not
even to a typeface that has a glyph for Σ. What have I done wrong?
In Word, I have the Greek letters showing correctly Century font. But
if I Copy and Paste into PowerPoint, it will change to Arial.

Help, help. Thanks.

Hi,

I'm having trouble with PowerPoint deciding that it wants
to use Arial Unicode MS when I want to use Palatino
Linotype to type polytonic (classical) Greek. I type
using Palatino Linotype, then save. When I open or view
the presentation again, PowerPoint substitutes Arial
Unicode MS font for the font I want.


Any suggestions?


Regards,


-wj
