Hi Brian,<br><br>If you paste as "Text" you get ASCII encoding; pasting as "Unicode Text" gives you unicode encoding. Try pasting the following characters (from the unicode range 2190 to 2265 -- well above 00FF, where the ASCII range ends)<br>
←↑→↓↔↕∂∆∏∑√∞∩∫≈≠≡≤≥<br>as "Text" into an FM9/10 document (using Paste Special, for example). The result will be a string of question marks, because those characters don't exist in the ASCII range. Pasting as Unicode Text, however, gives you the proper encoding and the appropriate characters (assuming you're using a font like Arial that actually contains those glyphs).<br>
<br>For this reason, pasting as Unicode Text will almost always provide better results than pasting as Text.<br><br>HTH,<br>Mike<br><br><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Jan 13, 2012 at 8:21 AM, Brian Emrich <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:BEmrich@phoenixcon.com" target="_blank">BEmrich@phoenixcon.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

placed TEXT first in the line. What is the difference between TEXT and
UNICODE TEXT in regards to a paste format? How can one paste unicode text
into a non-unicode font or vice versa? I've been using unicode fonts and
it seems to work OK as TEXT, although occasionally, I do have an issue.
It is FM and unicode so I expect a few issues. :-) </font>

<br><font size="3">Thanks to all the kind people who shared the way to fix
copy paste from Word into Frame. <br>
<br>
Here's how:<br>
Open the file maker.ini, which in my case was here:<br>
<br>
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Technical Communication Suite 2\Adobe
FrameMaker 9<br>
<br>
Edit the line:<br>
ClipboardFormatsPriorities=FILE, OLE 2, EMF, META, DIB, BMP, MIFW, MIF,
RTF, UNICODE TEXT, TEXT<br>
<br>
Change the line to:<br>
ClipboardFormatsPriorities=UNICODE TEXT, FILE, OLE 2, EMF, META, DIB, BMP,
MIFW, MIF, RTF, TEXT<br>
<br>
You will need administrators right to do the editing.<br>
