   If you wish your replacement text to be, or include, the spelled out equivalent of the Arabic numeral, precede or follow the number with

•<S> (for just a conversion to the spelled out version of the number) or
•<SS> (for both short and spelled out versions of the number).

   If <SS> is placed first, the spelled out amount is the 'primary' value, and the number appears in parentheses. If <SS> is placed last, the number is the primary value, and the spelled-out value appears in parenthesis.

   The results are shown below the example.

Examples:
