Converting auto text to plain text
This step will convert any auto text found in the Word document into plain text. Auto text usually includes items like numbered lists. For importing items like legal documents, this can be quite handy. To convert the auto text, you'll actually need to use Visual Basic but I promise its quite easy and only a few steps. Here is how to run it the process:
- Open the document in Word that you wish to convert
- Press ALT+F11 to display the Visual Basic Editor
- On the View menu, choose Immediate Window and type the following: ActiveDocument.ConvertNumbersToText and press Enter
- Close the Immediate Window
- Re-save the Word document]

Thanks for sharing this question, Shreya. That's very interesting indeed. Curious, if you enable non-printing characters, does anything show up there?
0hi Mike,
After updating here, when next day i tried two more word docx, somehow I did not encounter the above mentioned issue.
