Hello Tim
Hm, /If/ it should be an italics problem, I wonder the "656515777" = /9/
ciffers. Normally it would only be 4 (hexa-decimal) or in some rare
cases 8 (double hexa-decimal) ciffers.
You don't mention which fonts are used in the original document, so I'd
very much like to know the font name(s) and mostly used size(s).
Do you have 'Font Substitution' enabled in NWP? - If yes, which fonts
are you using as substitudes for which fonts?
Do you happen to have either BBEdit or TextWrangler? - What happens if
you open the file in either? - Does either show the same ciffering - in
green coloring? - in red coloring? - or normal black coloring?
What happens if you - in NWP - use 'Select All' and then 'Hide
Invisibles'. - Do the 9-ciffer numbers disappear?
I know of one group of fonts that maybe could cause these problems.
These are the "MS Serif" and "MS Sans Serif" UTF-15 compatible fonts
that come along with Windows Vista - and maybe also with Win7 and Win8.
This font group is installed along with MSOffice 2007 and MSOffice 2012
Windows Editions, and they are some of the worse piece of work that ever
has come from MS. This MS font group should be UTF-8, UTF-16 and UTF-32
compatible, but they aren't!
The only font that I know which will show this font group correctly is
the "ArialUnicodeMS.ttf" an apprx. 23mb large UTF-8/15/16/32 compatible
font...
Cheers, Erik Richard
