Can someone please help me. I have recently upgraded from Office X to Office
2008. In Entourage many of the emails I recieve have very strange characters
that I cannot understand. When I tried to copy a sample here it translates
it to english. ??

Try running a font cache cleaner. Restart.

Because your problem seems to involve multiple languages, I'll leave any
further help on this to the MVPs that know more about this from personal
experiences

Font Basics:

Office 2008 Font Install:

Office 2008 uses a different method for fonts and many fonts are new
versions. Office 2008 will install fonts to the /Library/Fonts/Microsoft
folder. By being at the root, then all users on the machine have access to
them and you don't get Office 2008 putting multiple copies on the machine
for each user.

The installer will scour /Library/Fonts/ and ~/Library/Fonts/ for fonts with
the same name and move them to /Library/Disabled Fonts/ or
~/Library/Disabled Fonts/ depending on where they were found.
