Word vX Language problems

[Stuart]

I have recently started studying greek at university and was wanting to
type assignments which will use greek symbols, but it appears that
Word vX (office for Mac) does not support a greek keyboard. Are there
any suggestions to help this problem?

Stuart,

Since Word X does not support the Greek keyboard, there are two ways that
Greek can be put into a Word X document.

1. Insert Symbol
From the Insert menu select Symbol. The Symbol font contains Greek
characters, both upper and lower case. Simply choose the character you want
then click the Insert button.

2. Obtain a Greek font.
A quick search of the internet for Macintosh Greek Fonts turned up quite a
number of possibilities, both free and commecial Greek fonts. I do not use
Greek, so I could not reccomend any particular Greek font for your use.

Good luck with your study of Greek!
