Status of characters

Post by CharlesKPThomas »

Hi,

I have created a symbol font that works ok in Windows but it is showing all of the characters I use (98 of them) as "Invalid". I have no idea why this should be so - I copied them from another (Unicode) font so that I could use them with an application that doesn't support Unicode.

Many thanks,
Charles

I guess they must be incorrectly mapped.

Try converting the font to a Symbol font from the Tools menu.
