I am observing two problems when combining symbols with subscript formatting and exporting to MS Word:

1) Using symbols in subscript:

When I put the following text in an object's "Object Text":

foo L_{lambda} bar

(the '_{lambda}' should represent the symbol lambda as subscript)

and export the object to Word (using either the standard export or WEXP), all text after L_{lambda} remains in subscript mode!

Replacing the symbol with a 'normal' character exports well.

2) Using subscripts after symbols

A related problem appears when I am trying to attach a subscript to a symbol, e.g.

{lambda}_0

(i.e. the symbol lambda with the number zero as subscript).

In this case, the subscript is ignored during the export and the zero is exported in full height.


I must admit that we still run Doors 7.0 (but we are in the process of upgrading), so for the moment I would just appreciate if someone running an actual Doors version could just test if the problems described above still exist in the newer Doors versions.

Thanks in advance,

Peter

No problems here with the examples you described using DOORS normal Word export to "Book" format.

DOORS 8.3.0.1
Word 2003
