Why when I try to copy and paste from my online book to the Microsoft word does it change my copied words and puts boxes on every I and L letters?

How to decrease heading levels by one and change titles to heading 1 globally

Posted: 31 May 2014 12:54 PM PDT

Hi,

I used Title style for chapter titles and Heading 1, 2, 3 for sub-chapters and paragraphs. I'm trying to generate Table of Contents, but the titles are not being included. It seems that I was not following required MS Word conventions of heading levels, so I would like to do so now. I would like to decrease heading levels by one and change title style to heading 1 globally in my document. Is there a way to do it?

Problem in MS Office 365, in Word & in Outlook Pane where the page appears half size and remaining is gray, scroll appeares also.

See image below that shows that the page in Office Word appears on only the upper half with scroll. The same appears in eth Preview Pane of the Outlook. While in Power Point the slide always appears pushed up half page.

printing custom size envelopes

Posted: 31 May 2014 05:00 AM PDT

I want to print 5.75 X 8.75 envelopes.  I put in the return address and the delivery address but when I print the envelope only the delivery address shows up on the envelope.  

The file cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents: Line 2 Column 15663

Issue was mentioned on this thread:

http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2010-word/unspecified-error-worddocumentxml-line2-column-0/21971fa0-df44-4ba6-ac42-7d4b5cd4174f

But I had a look myself and I couldn't find the error in the XML. I know that it has to do with pictures and equations, and I know it would be toward the end of the document that the error would be occurring, but I myself cannot find it. I need somebody with them killa skillz to help me out, and I'd be majorly grateful :)

The file is here: https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=320B7B6C6400D19F!113&authkey=!AJSZeWLKUiPnKFE&ithint=file%2c.docx

Another end tag error - help!

Posted: 30 May 2014 11:06 PM PDT

Just finished working on a major, and large document (76MB) - hit the save button for what I thought was the last time, and everything froze. Restarted Word and now getting the end tag error and of course my file wont open. Have tried the Microsoft Fixit option and no joy. I don't have maths equations - but do have lots of figures, captions etc. Looked to try to edit the XML myself - but even that seems to be giving me errors. Can anyone help?

A typical Problem with Typing and Spellcheck in Word 2013 with Indic language Bangla (India)

Posted: 30 May 2014 07:29 PM PDT

I am using

  • Windows 8.1 (64-bit) 
  • Office 2013 (32-bit)
  • Microsoft's Indic Language Font Mangal developed by C-DAC, India
  • For Phonetic English C-DAC ISM V6 Multi-lingual Interface (32-bit) for Bangla (India).

I have installed Language Interface and Proofing Tools as shown below (Microsoft Dictionary for Bangla is not yet available) -

I typed Bangla Word সম্বন্ধিরা using same set of tools which prints itself here correctly, and also in the file name of following screenshot when it was saved on my computer BUT the problem lies elsewhere as described below with the help of following screenshot and areas marked with numbers 1, 2, 3 in red boxes -

  • In Word 2013 the word prints differently (five separate letters) as shown by [1] above
  • When I run Spellcheck the word shows correctly (four separate letters of which the second letter is combined) as shown by [2] above
  • As [2] above is the correct one, I need to select that from box [3] and click 'change' button, so it can replace the spelling marked with [1] but, as you see, box [3] is blank, and therefore, I cannot do what is needed to be done here.
  • Correct spelling as identified with [2] seems like an image, not text, and therefore, cannot be copied and pasted to correct the word as identified with [1]

This is only an example. Numerous are similar cases in my Word file that I am presently working on.

Question is how can I possibly get over this situation?

Any practical hint will be welcome, and appreciated.

Thank you all for your valuable time spent on reading this case.

OFFICE a $100 rip-off

Posted: 30 May 2014 06:18 PM PDT

I just purchased OFFICE upon the recommendation of three retail outlets.  I told each that I wanted a word processor and each told me to buy OFFICE.  I did and after going on line and installing OFFICE, I find out it is only a lease and I will have to pay $100 every year to use it.  I really have no use for most of OFFICE, all I need or want is a good word processor.  Why isn't the information printed prominently on the package?  Why wasn't I informed before install?  Do I have any recourse?  IS THERE A GOOD WORD PROCESSOR PACKAGE I CAN BUY OUTRIGHT AND HAVE FOR A LONG AS I WANT?  Recommendation -- please.  I'm 73 and I'm not great with computers but I'm not stupid either.  I just want a good word processor.  My discussions as to my needs were with BEST BUY,  STAPLES, & OFFICE DEPOT.  I was looking to buy a new computer and wanted a word processor for it.   Wal-Mart had the best price on OFFICE so I bought it there, now I'm stuck with what I don't need or want.
