Word X is not completely Unicode capable. Therefore, the characters with macrons that are available in the character palette cannot be copied correctly into a Word document. If you use TextEdit (comes with OS-X) you can copy and paste the macrons (and a multitude of other special characters) in easily. They also print on standard printers. I have only tested this with Lucida Grande - which seems to have all the necessary glyphs. Otmar Foelsche
