I am using Word 2013 Mailings to print out lists. I create the lists in excel and insert them in word via Mailings. The fields in excel contain numbers which I want to be displayed in Arabic numerals, like the rest of the text. But no matter what I do,
it's always displayed in English numerals. I can directly type in Arabic numbers and all, the issue arises when I use Mailings.
However I was looking for a quick remedy. The command you mentioned requires me to do some research and learning since I have no knowledge of that command. That I will do when I get the time because I want to get the most out of Office 2013 but until then:
I figured if I go to:
Control Panel > Region > Additional Settings
and change Use Native Digits from Context to National (having set everything else to Arabic already), every single digit in windows shows up in Arabic numerals (including Mailings in Word).
This is a quick remedy for someone with my level of knowledge. Hope it helps someone else as well.
