FWIW, that char can be typed into Win boxes by holding down Alt, hit 0151
(on the number pad), then release the Alt key.
Also:
put charToNum("�")
-- 151
So... perhaps you can edit the fontMap.txt file. I believe it's defaulting to
Mac: => Win: 209=>151 and
Win: => Mac: 151=>209
I don't have a Mac available, so I don't know what char 209 is on the Mac. HTH.
