Printing and Displaying Unicode Text in Office

Not all printers can print characters from more than one code page. In particular, printers that have built-in fonts might not have characters for other scripts in those fonts. Also, new characters such as the euro currency symbol might be missing from a particular font.

Although the Microsoft Office System contains many workarounds to enable printing on such printers, it is not possible in all cases. If text is not printing correctly, updating the printer driver might fix the problem. If the latest driver does not fix the problem, you can look for an option in the printer driver options called “download soft fonts,” or “print TrueType as graphic.” Change this setting and try printing again.

If the text still does not print correctly, you can create a registry entry that works around the printing problems of most printers; the printing quality, however, might be lowered.

To set the registry so that extended characters are printed correctly

Go to the following registry subkey:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Word\Options





Add a new value entry named NoWideTextPrinting and set its value to 1.
