Unicode Arial Font

[pelirojaroja]

Is there a way to get the most recent Unicode Arial and
TNR fonts? I don't have the new ones (I need the less
than/equal to symbol)-- only the old one that doesn't have
the symbol. (I do have Office 2000)

Thanks.

Hi Lisa,

As far as I know, the "Times New Roman" that came with Office2000 already
had U+2264 (less than or equal).
Arial Unicode MS always had it (plus U+2266 = less than over equal).

You'll find it in the subset "Mathematical Operators".

What's new in Word2002 is the shortcut Alt+X to turn the code 2264 into the
character (and vice versa).

In Word2000, you can copy the macro below into your normal.dot, and assign
the shortcut Alt+X to it.

Regards,
Klaus

Sub ToggleUnicode2000()
Dim sLike As String
sLike = "[0-9a-fA-F][0-9a-fA-F][0-9a-fA-F][0-9a-fA-F]"
Dim sHexNumber As String
Dim rngHexNumber As Range
Selection.Collapse (wdCollapseEnd)
Set rngHexNumber = Selection.Range
rngHexNumber.Start = rngHexNumber.Start - 4
If rngHexNumber.Text Like sLike Then
rngHexNumber.Text = ChrW("&H" & rngHexNumber.Text)
rngHexNumber.Select
Else
rngHexNumber.Start = rngHexNumber.End - 1
sHexNumber = AscW(rngHexNumber.Text)
sHexNumber = Hex(sHexNumber And &HFFFF&)
While Len(sHexNumber) < 4
sHexNumber = "0" & sHexNumber
Wend
rngHexNumber.Text = sHexNumber
rngHexNumber.Select
End If
End Sub

Did you check the font with Insert Symbol? Click on Unicode in the
lower right. Those mathematical operators were included in early versions of
both fonts.
