I do a lot of copy/paste from plain text documents coming from contributors to a catalog we are designing. Many of these paragraphs contain the trademark and copyright symbols throughout the paragraphs. When I paste these paragraphs into Corel X7, the symbols come in as normal height text. I would like to have Corel automatically convert those symbols to superscript. I've tried the QuickCorrect, but that did not seem to work.
Does anyone know of a way to have these symbols converted without me having to go through the text dialog for each and every one?
Thank you in advance.
This is quite interesting indeed. You can use the find and replace text and type in the code for it but then you have keep hitting find next and find next and...
I can see where a macro would come in very handy for that.
This macro will change all ® symbols to superscript. Could easily modify for additional symbols and/or position. Works in X4. Not sure about others.

Tested and works with X7!
Have you tried the macro?
