@ghosty & DD - thanks for your enthusiastic efforts. I've done all those things and it's still the same story. (And as DD noted, custom words also don't work). As I said, It's obviously an international conspiracy. Or there are Gremlins in my computer. Or both.

Anyway, it's not ideal but it's still way, way better than what it was before!

EDIT: well it seems I uncovered the plot/found the gremlin -- when i was inserting em/en dashes (Alt+0151/0150), it was inserting some kind of hidden character (something like a blankspace). It just means going through and removing it via S/R. Again thanks guys for slogging it out with me.
