Dear Sirs,

when I try to use the Tibetan characters contained in the Arial Unicode
MS
font in Microsoft Word 2002, the vowel signs do not appear above (or
below)
the base character, as they should, but in the next character position.

Example: the base character "BA" (0F56) cannot be combined with the
vowel
sign "O" (0F7C) in the proper way. (The result should actually be a
single
glyph representing the syllable "BO".)

I would be grateful for any information on how this problem can be
solved.

With many thanks and best regards,

Robin Sackmann
