I have a document which is full of script like this - it is Thai language but in this Format.

Is it possible to convert this to Thai script?

I have tried pasting into a blank Word document and changing the Font to a Thai one but that does not work.

Any advice welcome.

Have you tried this page: http://www.thai2english.com/encoding/ ?

This is what it comes out to be. Just change the "view" "character encoding" to "Thai TIS-620"

Meadish - many thanks, that helped a lot!

David - thank you too, however I tried to change the Encoding but I don't have the option of "Thai TIS-620" in Windows IE - only "Thai (Windows)" - how do I get the Encoding you mention?

Finally, part of the document is in a different Style - e.g. * 2" 5@+!7- 1 - any advice on how to read that?

Thanks again to both of you.

* 2" 5@+!7- 1 ... If not just cartoon speech-bubble type curses it could perhaps be a 'fixed font'. Hard to say, I am no expert at fonts and unfamiliar with that type of garble (the first one you posted is common though).

Rikker has done a nice job in explaining how to set us the Thai language input in Windows. See http://rikker.blogspot.com/2008/06/setting...in-windows.html for his discussion. Let us know if this works for you.
