Converting Unicode to word

[yas1320]

Hi, can anyone help me. Iv got a file which is on a software called inpage, which uses Unicode. I want to transfer it on to ms word. Is there anyway I can do it, when I copy and paste it just comes up as weird characters.

Thanks

It's basically text which seems to be in Unicode, so I can't seem to just copy the text and paste it onto word, just comes up as ???????.

you should be able to paste it.. Do you not have the MS unicode font installed?

What is the language of the text? Is it Cyrillic or something?

I believe word has been unicode since like 97, are you using an older version?

InPage is an industry standard Page Making software for Urdu and related languages...

It seems that you will need a font...Calligraphic style handling of Nastaliq script using Noori Nastaliq font

I'm using Microsoft 2007, the language is Urdu, I was just thinking if I copy and paste the Unicode font into the windows fonts, would that work?

If your font file is .ttf or .otf, right click on it and pick 'install'. On XP machine you will have to go to C-Panel/Fonts and there menu File/install...
