NWP does not use this System feature and, therefore, does not have Edit:Substitutions:Text Replacement menu. Pages has its own independent substitution feature which has all the default text replacements found in System Preferences repeated in its Preferences>Auto-Correction Preferences. The ‘Symbol and text substitution’ box must be checked. Hamid
