import text an character problem

[Poziomka]

I can’t insert a text from the file (rtf, doc, docx) to a frame. Even copy from wordpad to a text frame in designer!

 

TXT files are OK. Working with formatted text could be very helpful.

 

How can I place a special character from Character Map like U+00B0 = °?

 

Has anyone else had this problem?

Thanks for reporting this, there are a couple of existing text copy/paste issues in 1.5.0.8, so I believe this is already reported, but have logged a new issue to be sure.

 

You can use alt key codes to insert special characters, this site might be of use to you. ALT+167 will get you the degree symbol.

 

Thanks

This site may be of use to you if you don't have, or prefer not to use, a numeric keypad. The Classic set provides easy access to characters such as ©, ™ and °.

 

It would be good to be able to insert a much greater range of characters via the 'Text > Insert Character' submenu in AD.
