When you paste mixed RTL and LTR plain text into a document in Word 2016, punctuation might appear on the wrong side of words.
Sometimes Word 2016 does not show a MacroButton field, and shows the following message instead:
Display text cannot span more than one line!
After you enable and disable Split window for a document that has an ActiveX control in Word 2016, Word 2016 crashes.
Word 2016 may crash if a list item begins with a diacritic, and the list uses a space (instead of a tab) for indentation.
After you compare or combine two versions of a document that are coauthored by different coauthors in Word 2016, all OLE objects are marked as changed.
Autocorrect changes incorrect characters in the presence of diacritic in Word 2016.
Sometimes Word 2016 shows numbers incorrectly when the Numeral setting is set to Context in the Word Option dialog box.
When you scroll through a document that has an ActiveX control in Word 2016, the ActiveX control is switched to design mode.
The Send as PDF function is unavailable in Reading mode in SharePoint Server 2016.
Some symbol characters are changed to "1" unexpectedly in the following scenarios:
