Aloha everyone,
I don't know what this symbol looks like but JAWS
says N-dash. Example pasted here. ?
This document has this symbol used in different
ways throughout the document, so a find and
replace is not the answer. When the ? is between phrases such as
I want to go home ? then on to school.
It translates as a -- with a space on each side.
I can use the find and replace to get rid of the spaces on each side of it.
However, this ? is also used in words like
built?in
hands?free
When this is translated it doesn't have a space
before and after but it is a double dash, example
built--in
hands--free.
Any short cuts to help with this mess? I only
have 274 print pages to deal with , and only 24 hours in a day. Thanks...
Betsy
