Could I ask for some help?
I seem to be having problems with a multi-file series of Word 5.1 documents
with several hundred EndNote refs inserted using the EndNote Plus plug-in
module (version 1.3). When I formatted the refs for the document series,
and then printed them, the references appear to have formatted correctly,
but from a certain point onward in the text, all occurences of certain
characters in the text print erroneously, nearly always as blank spaces on
the paper, *although they appear normally on screen*. All the non-printing
characters are "extended ASCII" characters such the superscript "o" degree
symbol, the Greek "mu" character etc. "Smart" typographers' quote marks
also misbehave: the opening quote mark prints as an exclamation mark, the
closing quote mark as a blank. For what it's worth I am using Palatino
throughout.
Although the initial "format bibliography" I did on the file series
appeared to run without trouble, I am finding in trying to reformat the
bibliography again after further edits, that I am informed that objects are
damaged. However the "Fix Damaged Objects" utility (version 1.0) reports no
problems. I suspect I'm dealing with the old "undo-cut" bug again, and
recall that there was a manual means of searching for the damaged citation
described in the Niles Notes newsletter, but can't remember the details.
Could you help, or suggest other possible solutions of this problem?
Many thanks
(PS If anyone from Cherwell Scientific (UK distributors) is reading this, I
sent the same query direct to you. Please excuse my "going over your heads"
but this is a thesis approaching deadline and I'm getting increasingly
desperate!)
