Links Created in Word .docx
Non-ASCII characters in URLs are converted into a format that can be transmitted over the internet.
When Linking add-in (Word) links are created in Microsoft Word documents with .docx extension, Word changes non-ASCII characters to encoded characters such as "%20" for a space character for transmitting over the internet.
Note: If encoded characters are used purposely in the URLs, the encoded characters will be replaced my corresponding characters listed under Replacement Сharacter in the table below.
