Dont believe Word. As Jongware said, you might want to consider substituting something else for Simsun.I can see the text in WORD, but when I copy and paste it into InDesign it appears as a selection of boxes with a pinkish background.I have checked that the font is on my PC - it shows up as a ttc, not a ttf, but is selectable in Microsoft products and not Adobe ones.What can I do to get this text to view in Simsun or another Chinese font in InDesign Thanks in advance.
Indesign separates fonts by encoding, and it starts with all the roman fonts first. When you go to Type Find Font, does it show that Simsun is missing If its missing, the first thing I would do is go to Control Panel Fonts and see if its installed. Dont believe Word. You can change the Chinese characters to any other font that supports Chinese. The CS packages come with a plethora of fonts -- if you dont have them installed, check your DVDs for the Fonts folder. Good Chinese fonts are Adobe Heiti, Kaiti, Song, and Fangsong. Beware, though, not all of the fonts have all of the characters (as there is no such notion:-)). Then simply use Find Font to change, or (better) use Find Replace to change SimSun to an appropriate Character Style. Edit Additionally, that weird Word automatically uses another font if the document uses characters not in the default font. If you replace the fonts in your InDesign document and still see unformatted ones (pink), try a GREP search for the Chinese characters.
