Complex Scripts Tab

[lindasilacci]

Does anyone know how to remove the "Complex Scripts" tab located under tools options in Word 2003?

Not even sure how it got there

There are two places to check:

1) This description is for Windows XP, I hope it's similar for Windows Vista and Windows 7.

• In Windows, select Start | Control Panel.
• Open Date, Time, Language and Regional Options.
• Open Regional and Language Options.
• Activate the Languages tab.
• Clear the check boxes "Complex Script" and "East Asian Languages".
• Click OK.

2) The menu options may vary slightly.

• In Windows, select Start | (All) Programs | Microsoft Office | Microsoft Office Tools | Microsoft Office Language Settings.
• If there are East Asian languages among the "Enabled languages", remove them.
• Click OK when done.

I had already checked both of these...

Under the Regional and Language settings "East Asian Languages: was not checked...there is no "Complex Script" check box

Under the icrosoft Office Language Settings East Asian was there and I removed it.

I have even deleted my normal.dot file...

Any other suggestions???

You could try a registry edit. Check out this thread: [topic=678201]Complex & Latin Fonts (Word2003) (Lounge forum: Word Processing)[/topic].
