DOCUMENT:Q117822 09-DEC-1999 [homemm] TITLE :Cinemania: Special and Foreign Characters Change When Copied PRODUCT :Microsoft Home Multimedia Titles PROD/VER::1994 edition OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS: ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Cinemania for the Macintosh 1994 edition ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== If you copy text that includes special or international characters from Cinemania into another application, the special characters may no longer display correctly. This occurs because the text is no longer formatted for Lucida. RESOLUTION ========== To restore the special or foreign characters, format your text as Lucida. The characters should now display and print correctly. MORE INFORMATION ================ The V-series Lucida Sans fonts is a custom bitmap font installed with Cinemania. This font does not map special or international characters correctly to the Macintosh character set. Because of this, special characters may appear as boxes or other inappropriate or nonprinting characters when you copy them to an application such as TeachText.
