anyone have any idea on how to drive the word search function using diacritics? if I cut and past a word in I end up with special characters instead of what I pasted.

Dear Michel and friends,

copy-and-paste works well in Windows using the VRIRomanPali fonts.
However, just a side note, this PDF file has removed all capital
letters and there are some punctuation errors too. And, I am "not
sure" if the PDF maker has made any other changes to the original
text. Although I had assumed that it is from a reliable source, it is
always good to double check with the original at

If you really have to use iMac for wordprocessing, SLTP has the
Nikayas in Mac format: http://www.gold.ac.uk/history/ibric.htm

nevertheless got the font VriROmanC installed in my system but as it
is a «.exe» file it might be unable to work properly on my Imac. Is
it possible to get this same font totally suitable for a Macintosh
environment?
