Recently I converted a .doc file (word97) to rtf so that a friend couldread
it using wordpad. She's got win xp sp3 also.
The file is readable except that all the quote (") characters around words
came out with an "A" at the beginning of the quote, and a "@" at the end.
(e.g. instead of "hello" it has Ahello@)
This isn't happening in wordpad on the machine that I used to convert and
send the file.
The likeliest reason is that (on the friend's PC, not yours) a font
file has been damaged. The test is whether (using a different
font) "hello" also displays as Ahello@. If not, her WORDPAD.EXE
may have been altered or hijacked.
