- I don't think this is a PC-NFS problem. We had the same problem with
- PC-NFS 3.5, WINDOWS 3.1 and WinWord 2.0. We then took out WinWord 2.0a
- and it worked well. It seemed to be a font problem, at least the
- garbage characters. Microsoft gives free updates to WinWord 2.0a
- (at least in germany :-)), so maybe try this first.

- Hope this helps,
- Boas
