Reply To: Problems Importing Word into InDesign …

Hopefully someone will be able to assist with this:

There is an Indian scripture font called Nirmala UI that I have in a word doc.

When I import this document into InDesign, some of the characters change even though the fonts are the same. I do not want the characters to change because it’s creating spelling mistakes in the Indian language.

Is there a way to import the file and making sure the font won’t change the characters? I’ve even tried to copy and paste manually, and the same thing happens – it pastes something else, similar alphabet family but not the correct one that I had in my original word doc.

Please let me know if you have any tips!
Thank you for your help in advance!
