You can use TextEdit for text docs.  After File > Open, select one of the S. Chinese encodings (or UTF-8) from the Plain Text Encoding menu until you find one that works.
If you are using a browser, then you can try the different encodings in View > Text Encoding.
If you have to use Word for Mac to open stuff, I don't know whether you can adjust encodings, probably best to search/ask in the forum run by its maker:

  • How do you view a friend's screen over the internet

    how do you view a friend's screen over the internet, not on the same LAN?
    for 10.8.x and 10.9.x?
    thanks,
    g.

    Look at LogMeIn, GoToMyPC or any other 'remote access service'.
    LogMeIn
    GoToMyPC
    Apple has 'Back to my Mac' which could work well, however it is tied into iCloud & frankly makes it a real pain handling passwords to set it up.
    I think the Messages application can allow you to request that someone can control the Mac via 'screen sharing' too, but I haven't tried across different OS X versions.

  • How can I view my full billing history for the app and music stores without iTunes installed?

    I just received an email receipt from Paypal showing a $12.99 purchase from iTunes. I almost NEVER purchase anything over around five dollars in the app or music store. Since PayPal does not show what this purchase was for, I have not received the receipt from Apple yet, and I cannot find anyway to look up online what this purchase was for....I need help to find out ASAP what this purchase was. If my account has been compromised or if I have been incorrectly charged for something, I would like to get the issue handled immediately. I do not want to install iTunes on my PC (nor should I have to for Pete's sake), but I cannot see anything recent at all in my app or music history on my iPad (not that I would ever purchase anything for $12.99 anyway...I just don't). Thanks in advance for any tips!

  • How can I view just music - not videos - in the libary and playlists?

    I've noticed that when creating smart playlists and viewing the libarary I cannot filter out videos... is there a way to do this without having to just uncheck the videos and pretend they aren't there or is this something that apple didn't think of?
    I want to create smart playlists to listen to in my car and want to back up my library on dvd-roms, that is where this becomes a problem. If anyone knows how to change the settings so that videos don't show up in certain playlists or on the libarary I would appreciate it a lot.

  • How do I view a movie I rented and downloaded to my computer on my apple TV. The ATV is not seeing the rented movie in my shared itunes library? I can't seem to transfer the rental to the ATV from the computer!

    How do I view a movie I rented and downloaded to my computer on my apple TV. The ATV is not seeing the rented movie in my shared itunes library? I can't seem to transfer the rental to the ATV from the computer!

    Dear friends,
    Thank you for responding to my problem so promptly. Frankly, I did not expect to hear from people so soon! The fact is that as soon as I posted the question, I was shown a number of similar queries and managed to find the answer. I have to say it's not intuitive! I have an apple TV original version. Apparently I had the ATV on streaming and not syncing. Streaming does not allow you to stream a rental from your computer whereas you can sync and transfer the rental from the computer!
    Thanks again.

  • Pages:  How can I sort one column of words and not have it affect the other columns?

    How can I sort one column of words and not have it affect the other columns?  I have opened the inspector to the edit columns and rows under Table.  It will sort the column, but then it changes the other colums as well.  I know that if I use Numbers, it will work, but I want to know how to do the same thing in Pages.

    Hi Peter,
    Numbers sorts full rows on values in selected column(s). The technique for sorting a single column is essentially the same as Jerry is describing for Pages tables—separate the (data in the) column to be sorted, sort it, return it to the table.
    In Numbers the actual column may be separated from the original table, sorted, then returned. In Pages, the data must be extracted, sorted, then pasted back in, overwriting the unsorted data (if it was left in the original table).
    iWork tables follow a database model in which each row is a Record, and each column holds a Field within the records.
    As evidenced by the current question (and several similar questions arising in the Numbers community) that model doesn't apply to the way some users, especially some who come in from the MS Excel world, use tables.
    With Excels model—islands of data on a single large table, the ability to sort one or a selected few columns of data makes sense. One 'island' may comprise only cells AA21:AH50. Sorting that small 'table' should be possible without disturbing the rest of rows 21-30, which are probably part of one or more other 'data islands' in the sea that is a MS Excel spreadsheet.
    In Numbers, each of those 'islands' would be a separate Table, and that Table would be sortable without disturbing other Tables in the document.

    Another method is tosave your Word document as an a web page.  Then open the htm file, copy the text and paste into an HTML snippet on your web page.  Resize to show all the document and publish. It will retain the style, font and alignment of the original Word document.

    You will need to find a forum for MS Word since that is the software that you are trying to manipulate in this.  If you think the processing/creation of the PDF plays a role then you should ask in the forum for the software that you are using to create the PDF.
    This forum is for issue regarding downloading and installing Adobe trial products, so in any circumstance, your issue does not fit in this forum.

    Can someone help me how to save .pdf files using office word and excel?  I reinstalled my adobe 7.0 pro in my new pc and before I was able to do it but with my old pc.

    For anything after Office 2003, you have to print to the Adobe PDF printer. If you installed AA 7 on OS newer than XP, you may have to do a workaround to get it to work. With later versions of WORD you can always use the MS plugin for creating PDFs.
