Good day;
- My new OS is XP prof service pack 2 (updated)
- I am running Microsft office 2000 premium on my computer backed with
Microsoft office 2000 proofing tools fully installed .
- My keyboard is a QWERTY carrying both alphabetsâ?? letters, Latin and
Arabic, and both numbers Latin and Arabic.
- In international settings under languages à details à settings, in
addition to English and other languages, I have added the language Arabic
(Saudi Arabia) with the following keyboards layout options: Arabic (101) and
Arabic (102).
In Microsoft Word, whether using keyboard layouts Arabic (101) or Arabic
(102), I encounter the following two problems:
1. While all buttons relative to Arabic letters function normally, when I
push the buttons relative to the Arabic numbers nothing shows up!!! I even
tried to push all the buttons on my keyboard to see whether other buttons
correspond to the Arabic letters, no luck? I tried again changing the
Arabic language to (Egypt) it did not work. What should I do?
2. While all commands present on the formatting toolbar function properly
including Bold letters, Font, alignment, ectâ?¦, font size does not. In fact,
when changing font size using the command on the formatting toolbar the
command will always show the preset size it does not change; however; if
afterwards I check font size in: Standard Toolbar à Format à Font, the font
size indicates the one I have newly set!!!
The major problem however, is that the font size on the document itself does
not change?!
N.B.: This problem is not present while working with English Language!
What should I do?
P.S.: previously I had windows 98 Arabic Edition as OS on my computer and I
did not had such problems!
Thanks in advance
Carlo
