Re: Bug or just having fun in Word

["Ervin S. Odisho" <ervin () EUSA NET>]

The text about "The quick brown fox bla bla bla..." is taken from the font
sample texts. If you go to win control panel and then choose fonts and
double click any of them you will see the same text. The text depends on the
language of your OS the spanish version of it is "El veloz murciélago hindú
comía feliz cardillo y kiwi." and the russian says something about the
french rolls. Did you guys know that you can even play a real game in
winword?
