Hello;

I am wondering if someone could explain me the main functionality and/or purpose of Fix Broken Text command in Microsoft Word under Tools Menu (Tools > Fix Broken Text).

What does it exactly do except changing the document Font into (Arial) from the current used font?

Regards;

It's nothing you're likely to need.

"When you open a Word document that was created using an earlier Eastern European version of Microsoft Word, the text of the document may appear as square boxes or other incorrect characters when you open the document in the English (U.S.) version of Microsoft Word.

This problem is caused by font-mapping and character-mapping problems.

For example, this problem can occur when you create a document by using a font that is not installed on your computer.

To correct these problems, Microsoft provides a Word Font Repair Macro that converts the fonts in the document (or the selected text) to Arial."
