G'day John!
Where would I find free Cyrillic fonts if not included with Word 2004?
As I said, I've been able to open Russian Word files before and I
have several fonts whose names end in CY (but not Times CY).
Could the "Times New Roman" that's displayed when I open
the file still mean that he used non-Unicode fonts?
BTW, just to help anyone's troubleshooting, the text appear as
nonsense characters, not the solid underlines that often
appear when trying to open such files. That's what I got when
I tried to open it using Word 98 on another (OS 9.1) computer.

Hi Gary:.
Yes, Unicode is built in to Word 2004, but you may need to install the
Cyrillic Fonts to handle Russian.
It's entirely possible that the originator has used a non-Unicode font, of
course...
Cheers

I was sent a Russian text by the author but all I can read are the few
words in Latin letters. I'm using Word 2004 with the latest updates.
The displayed font is Times New Roman.
How do I read it? Isn't Unicode built into this version? Normally I
don't have problems reading Russian Word files? Does the author need to
save it differently?
Regards,
Gary
