    Sometimes when you copy from word it puts all the other stuff in too - you've done nothing wrong, it just does it - try again in a bit or go back in and edit all the gumpf out if you really want to... (sad people like me do that...:o )
    I've had this problem - try changing your source font....ie the font you are using in Word or your source document.
