With my PPT, for example, it was the Windings font that was causing the problem. Don\'t forget that when you have finished your translation, you may need to reinsert the original character. One of my slides had a Winding of a Save (diskette) icon. After I had finished translating with Trados, I then went back and re-inserted this character.



The Trados website is good for providing you with information like this.



HTH,
