Symbol translation

I have a long Word 07 document that has changed itself into symbols. Is there
a way that I can transfer these symbols back into conventional English?

Here are two portions of the document:

While your cursor is in these paragraphs, check to see what Font you are
using. It looks like you ended up in a Greek font. Try selecting the
paragraph and then select Arial or Times New Roman and see what you get.

Good Luck.

Dawn, thanks for your reply.

I had already done this, and the symbols remained the same (but appeared in
the designated font as Arial, Times, etc.).
