I have a weird problem with a custom font installed on Windows 10. It is a font created many years ago and that we continually update with FontCreator since then. Its is used to display traffic signs in a CAD/GIS environment. On earlier version of Windows, prior to 10, there had not been any problem at all. But since we installed our font on a Windows 10 computer, weird behaviors happened such as:
- When we call a unique character (glyph) with his code-point number in a CAD software, the wrong character is displayed. For instance in our font, the stop sign has the code 10101. Under Windows 7, where I use that code, it shows the stop sign. But under Windows 10, it displays a parenthesis. Why?
- Also, unknown characters that are not in the font now appear in the characters list in all Windows software like parenthesis, numbers, geometric shape. None of those characters are included in our font when opened in FontCreator !
Is there any workaround?
