Perhaps other versions of Character Viewer stay up when the user switches between active programs, but this one, which I'm using in OSX 10.9.2, doesn't have that capability, and doesn'tĮven provide me with a means to identify which version of Character Viewer I have, as far as I can tell. Since I can't highlight a glyph not supported by Word while I'm in Word, and the Character Viewer that comes up when I'm in Word only looksĪt characters in Word, I don't see how it will ever give me a warning. When I checked the glyph in TextEdit, the programĭid support the glyph, so there was no warning on that occasion either. Get any warning message, perhaps because I couldn't copy the glyph into Word, so Character Viewer couldn't tell that was the glyph I was trying to find. When I selected that "e" in Word, then opened Character Viewer (which apparently opens in each application independently), the "LATIN SMALL LETTER E" character was displayed, and the one displayed was from the Chancery font. When I copied the glyph from TextEdit with Command-C and pasted it into word, it appeared, as Daniel suggested,Īs a non-variant "e". Double-clicking did indeed insert the glyph into TextEdit. When I went back to TextEdit, it reappeared with the glype selected. When I opened Word to see if I could copy the glyph into Word, Character Viewerĭisappeared. When I went to TextEdit and selected the 408 glyph (copied in from Font Book), then opened Character Viewer, the glyph showed up in Character Viewer. If it doesn't insert by double-clicking it isn't supported.Įvery added bit helps. Also, if a glyph is supported there should be no need to copy/paste or drag it into the document - just double-clicking the glyph will insert it.
Will be a warning message to that effect. If the glyph variant is not supported in the active program there Not sure if Character Viewer is different in your version of OS X but once you select a glyph such as your Apple Chancery 408 take a look at the bottom edge of the Character Viewer window. Si mi respuesta te ha servido, márcala como solución o como útil. _ If an answer provides a solution or you find it helpful, please mark it accordingly. Thus, I don't think all glyphs are exportable.
For example, identical texts typed in Word, Text Edit and Open Office yield different results. However, which glyph is used where seems to depend on the application and how it decides to interpret the textĪccording to its programmed features.
Once you enter a character that way, it does transfer to Word as a regular "e" instead of the Replacement Character (i.e., the white-on-black question mark).Īmong several fonts I tried that do have an extensive set of glyphs (like Lucida Grande), only Zapfino behaves correctly in Word's Stylistic Set.
To Palatino, and selecting it and changing the font to Apple Chancery didn't do anything, either. Selecting the question mark and trying to apply my modified "Normal" to it didn't work to change it Pasting it into Word changed the font in my document to Lucida Grande, away from the Palatino specified in my modified "Normal" style. I tried copying the glyph out of Font Book, too, before asking for help, and got Yes, I'd figured out that I needed the Typography section on the Home tab enabled, so I was able to get some of the ligatures from the Apple Chancery font. It seems that Apple Chancery is not fully compatible with Word. Home > Typography section displays several copies of identical characters: In fact,the Stylistic Set icon ("abc") in the Ribbon's However, it pastes in Word as a question mark character (pasting in TextEdit does work). I was able to copy and paste Glyph 408 from Font Book. This will display a new "Typography" section in the Home tab of the ribbon. You need to enable Word > Preferences > Ribbon > Typography.
