Network Templates 'Don’t' work in Mac Word. Due to multiple bugs in the file path resolving and handling mechanism, templates in network directories should not be shared between PC Word and Mac Word. For a long and happy life, copy the templates locally to the user's My Templates folder on the Mac. All Microsoft Office programs can check spelling, and most can check grammar. If you find that spelling or grammar checking isn't working as you'd expect see The spelling and grammar checker isn't working as expected.If you'd like to check spelling or grammar in a language other than your default language see Check spelling and grammar in a different language.

Wingdings Not Working In Word For Macs

Wingdings character set and equivalent Unicode characters

Wingdings font should not be used in Web pages or in e-mails that will be viewed in a Web browser. Specifying Wingdings font is contrary to the published HTML specifications, has never been a documented feature of HTML and is not reliable.

This page is not a demonstration of how to use Wingdings font; it provides a warning of the problems that it causes, and shows how to use Unicode instead. Wingdings is not available on all computers, and so the intended characters may not appear on computers running non-Microsoft operating systems such as Mac OS 9, Mac OS X 10, Linux or Android. The same problems are found with the Webdings, Wingdings 2 and Wingdings 3 fonts – they should not be used in Web pages.

If you want to view a Web page that uses Wingdings characters, then you need to use the Internet Explorer browser; other browsers will probably show none or only some of the Webdings characters.

This page lists (and attempts to display) all of the 224 characters in the Wingdings font. It also lists (and attempts to display) the equivalent Unicode characters, where these exist.

The characters that appear in the Wingdings Character column of the following table are generated by the non-standard technique of specifying the Wingdings font, using <font face='Wingdings'>. It is possible that your combination of browser and operating system will show Wingdings characters, but browsers that conform to the published standards will demonstrate why Wingdings font should not be used in Web pages.

The characters that appear in the Unicode Character column of the following table are generated from Unicode numeric character references, and so they should appear correctly in any Web browser that supports Unicode and that has suitable fonts available, regardless of the operating system.

Overview

The Wingdings fonts were designed by Kris Holmes and Charles Bigelow in 1990 and 1991. The fonts were originally named Lucida Icons, Arrows, and Stars to complement the Lucida text font family by the same designers. Renamed, reorganized, and released in 1992 as Microsoft Wingdings(TM), the three fonts provide a harmoniously designed set of icons representing the common components of personal computer systems and the elements of graphical user interfaces. There are icons for PC, monitor, keyboard, mouse, trackball, hard drive, diskette, tape cassette, printer, fax, etc., as well as icons for file folders, documents, mail, mailboxes, windows, clipboard, and wastebasket. In addition, Wingdings includes icons with both traditional and computer significance, such as writing tools and hands, reading glasses, clipping scissors, bell, bomb, check boxes, as well as more traditional images such as weather signs, religious symbols, astrological signs, encircled numerals, a selection of ampersands and interrobangs, plus elegant flowers and flourishes. Pointing and indicating are frequent functions in graphical interfaces, so in adition to a wide selection of pointing hands, the Wingdings fonts also offer arrows in careful gradations of weight and different directions and styles. For variety and impact as bullets, asterisks, and ornaments, Windings also offers a varied set of geometric circles, squares, polygons, targets, and stars.
