Default Font Pali Times Ameco

My web page http://www.gmayor.com/replace_using_wildcards.htm shows how to
obtain the appropriate decimal number, but as you say pasting should work.

I'll have to let grammatim answer your question, as I don't know the
answer. BTW, I found that the the ^unnnn requires the decimal number
of the character rather than hexadecimal, and that is more difficult
to find, so directly pasting in is the best solution.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
With Ctrl+V I can copy the word and then in Find Box I find the word
that I
wanted.
But in the Find Box the typefaces are so different. They are the
typefaces appearing with Times New Roman.
I'm interesting to solve my problems with pali and sanskrit
characters in roman translation, as "grammatim" said to you. How Can
I do?Thanks! "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote:

You should be able to use the same keyboard shortcuts in the Find
dialog. Or
you can copy a character and paste it into the Find dialog using
Ctrl+V. Or
you can get the Unicode number of the character by selecting it and
pressing
Alt+X (Alt+X again to toggle back) or by selecting it and going to
the Symbol dialog, where it will be selected, and noting the
Unicode number. You
can then use this in the Find dialog by entering ^uxxxx (though I
find that
this doesn't always work).

Thanks for your time.
The Font is in Windows Fonts Folder and I can print a document with
this
special typefaces. I can add Symbol as you said and this surprised
me for
I
posted my question here.
Maybe I was unclear.
In a Word Page if I want to put a special typeface from Pali Times
Ameco I
choose the typeface and then I have to use a special combination of
keys.
Ctrl+ or Ctrl+Alt+.
When I want to find a word with this typefaces I don't know how I
have to
write this character in the Find Box.
I followed your hints but If I follow Find-More-Format I can
change the typeface but I don't know how I can insert the special
typefaces. Please, help me!

If the font is installed (in the Windows Fonts folder), and the
active printer is one that is capable of printing, you should be
able to select
it
in any Font dialog or dropdown. Can you see it in the Symbol
dialog (Insert
Symbol | More Symbols...)?

I can't paste it in the Find box.
In Format I can't choose the Font.
What can I do?
Thanks!




You can Copy the word you're looking for (if necessary, type it
in your document, copy it, and delete it) and Paste it into the
Find box.
If the script is one encoded in Unicode, you probably won't
need to specify the font, but if it's Pali specifically, it's
coded either as
some other Indic script, or in the Private Use Area, or as
a-zA-Z, and
you should also choose the font as Suzanne explained.
