Jean,

 

Was your initial working document a scanned file? I have my
suspicions, based on an experience last week. If it is a scanned
document, I'd be interested in seeing the file. You can send it
to me off-list, and provide any details you can about the file's
origin.

It seems it's my day for emphasis problems. 

 

I was working on a glossary today, using guide words, etc. Again,
I use Word for my prep work and DBT 10.7. I had several occasions
where DBT would import the text and place an italic mark in front
of an entry word on the page, or in front of a guide word on line
25. There were no italics applied to the text, and I had no idea
why it was showing the italics mark. I managed to get rid of it
by adding the Grade 2 translation code in front of it, but I only
tried that as a desperate measure to try and force a fix. It
worked, but I still don't know why the text might have been
italicized in the first place as that wasn't applied to it. 

 

Has anyone ever come across this one before?

As soon as you dispose of a book, even one that has gathered dust
for years, a pressing need to refer to it will arise.
