What I noticed was that the default InDesign paragraph font (in a new document) of Times displayed the characters correctly, as did Helvetica and Myriad Pro, which is supplied with InDesign. I did a quick experiment of my own, by setting my input language to Greek and typing the greek alphabet into TextEdit, and then copying the resulting text into InDesign. Your problem here seems to be that the fonts you are using in InDesign do not match those used in other applications, and thus support a different variety of characters to each other. I hope someone can suggest some way to handle the Greek letter typing inyo InDesign in the same way that I can do the Greek letter typing into Text Edit and into Word. but as an object that can be copied and inserted, rather than as a letter that can be typed. Example: the lower right corner offers the equivalent of the Greek letter phi. it would be much more convenient to use a keyboard typed input as with the other languages.Īnd then select from various displays as below. I am able to "get around" this problem in a slow and ponderous manner. Incidentally, I have no problems with typing the other languages and special fonts into InDesign. I get the same results if I try to type directly into InDesign. Lots of little squares where the Greek letters should be. When I Copy/Paste that short material from Text Edit over into InDesign CS3, I get the following. To get this Greek font, I used the following. My only knowledge is as illustrated below. I'm not adequately knowledgeable about the font business to know "what kind" of fonts these are. Just the "little squares" that you will see in the third illustration below. The text, however, is the same as initially. png format - "clipped" from my computer screen. All of these included images were originally. these illustrations were missing from my initial query. In what way do they not work? What happens when you input or paste Greek? Also, I can't successfully Copy/Paste from a WORD document containing Greek letters. I can't type Greek letters directly on an InDesign page. > I do have Greek fonts available and they work well with MS WORD and other software.
