I've found that Microsoft products including word work with this website.  I type in what I want and then just cut and paste into Word or PowerPoint.

phonetic symbols in Word For Mac 2011 [2 Updates]






   phonetic symbols in Word For Mac 2011

      Dear Info-CHILDES,

 

Neither Apple nor Microsoft have been able to help me with a problem I have

with phonetic fonts. I have an old PC that I have had since 2009, and a new

Mac. The PC has Office 2007 running Word 2007, and the MacBook Pro has

Office For Mac 2011.

 

The difficulty I have is with the Mac. In Word For Mac 2011 there is no

provision to insert DoulosSIL fonts from a dropdown menu like the one in

Word 2007. I have downloaded the DoulosSIL font family, and they work

perfectly on the Mac (e.g., if I open a document created on the PC).

 

Have you encountered this problem, and do you have any idea how to configure

Word For Mac 2011 to do the Insert > Symbol manoeuvre with the phonetic

fonts, including diacritics?

 

Alternatively, how do you make Word For Mac 2011 "do" phonetics?

 

Best wishes,

Caroline

      Dear Caroline,

I am not sure whether you can 'fix' Word, as my experience with it is limited. However, I offer two nice solutions below which you may want to explore:

 

1) Brian Hall's IPA Palette, a nice (free) IPA input utility, available through CHILDES and described at the following address:

2) PopChar, an excellent (paid) application to insert symbols from any of the fonts installed on your system, whichever the application you are using:

I hope you find (some of) this useful.

 

With best regards,

Yvan
