grahamsmythe Posted December 9, 2022 Posted December 9, 2022 I've had a load of text supplied via e-mail. Between each sentence they've put a full point (.) and then a space and then a non breaking space. If I copy an instance of {full point, space, non breaking space} and then past it into the search field, nothing gets found when searching. However, if I put in {full point, space} and then go to the dropdown menu for special characters and choose non breaking space, I'm able to search and replace. Am I doing something wrong, or is this a limitation of Publisher? Quote
walt.farrell Posted December 9, 2022 Posted December 9, 2022 Copy/Paste into the Find box can paste an unwanted extra character. That may be what's happening for you, too. If so, it's a known issue.
