I HAVE been using Microsoft Word for Windows version 6.0 and Twinbridge version 3.3 to allow both Chinese characters and English text to be displayed in the same document.
One problem I have is how to show tones when entering Pin Yin.
Is there any solution that would place one of the signs for the four tones above Pin Yin words within Microsoft Windows? For example, you could type 'ni' followed by Alt-F9 and the first tone would be displayed above the 'i'. Alt-F10 would place the second tone and so on.
NIGEL DART Guangzhou You could edit your fonts. This worked for one of my colleagues on Technology Post.
Use a package such as FontMonger from Ares or Fontograph from Altsys. Both allow for basic font editing, although the latter is the more expensive and complex of the two.
In a font set, each font has space for 255 characters, not all of which are shown on the keyboard.
