I guess the invisible characters in Word will be your ISO characters.
It may be that the font Word is using doesn't support those characters.
With Word 2000 onwards, Microsoft provide a special set of ISO compatible
fonts for use in multi-language environments. The files for these fonts
are huge and most people don't need the extra stuff so MS keep them
seperate.
I seem to remember they're available as an option during installation.
