Hi
Usually its a useful thing to have fractions like 1/2 converted to a single character but sometimes its better if the characters are kept separate, eg if used along with other fractions that dont have a single character representation, eg 5/7.

Is it possible to cancel the conversion on a one-off basis, ie without having to alter preferences, conversion tables or whatever?

Thanks
Gary

Yes. Press Ctrl+Z immediately after the conversion happens.

Kind regards

The "conversion" is done in the AutoCorrect. From Tools -> AutoCorrect ->
AutoCorrect Options you can disable, or modify the replacement table to add
the additional franctional forms, or remove them all. Play with it a bit,
several ways to adjust.

A profile reset will restore defaults.
