Hello all,
I'm not sure how to phrase this question. In the courier font NWP produces a strange auto correct when I type "--" that conjoins the two characters when I press the space bar. That is, it seems to try to do an autocorrect of some kind. However, I have no such autocorrect set and it doesn't do this in other fonts.
Does anyone know what is the matter?
best,
Sam

Well -
I too can't reproduce this - it reminds me somehow of Publius' theorem on:
Make sure it is not just a display thing. What Courier, at what size?

So in a way we had this before - did you do a count of the so-called "conjoint"?Derick wrote:Am I missing something or does NWP not automatically convert two dashes ( -- ) to an em-dash?

If the document is not totally confidential, why not send it to the Solanums to look at using the bug reporting facility in the Help dialog?
By the way -- have you checked Quickfix? Although that would be very odd if it fixed something in only one font. Hmm -- forget that! Just report it as a bug.
