Rhobust Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 I have a large text which I have prepared in Word. It contains many Māori words which contain macrons (as shown). When I paste the text into Affinity Publisher, any word which contains a macron is displayed as a set of squares. The text style is set with a font which supports macrons, and by manually typing in the Māori word with a macron, the word displays without problem. How can I paste my text into Affinity without losing the words which contain macrons? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhobust Posted September 14, 2020 Author Share Posted September 14, 2020 Many thanks for that. Mac doesn't have the Paste Special option, but I never thought of Placing the Document, which works fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jules-nz Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 This is something similar - I'm also trying to type Maori words in a handwritten font which uses macrons in my affinity publisher document. How would I type the letter with the macron? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
