Dear S. Noble, thanks for all of the details you give. I do not how to fix the issue. However, it is possible that you had the same issue as you did before upgrading LyX, it's just that LyX did not report the error. The reason is that starting as of 2.2.0, LyX started reporting this missing characters as errors, partly because of the reason you mention in the paragraph above (if you are missing a character e.g. in a footnote somewhere you likely won't realize on your own). This change in LyX's behavior was documented in the release notes of LyX 2.2.0: https://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/ReleaseNotes#toc2 Although I don't know how to fix the problem, I can give you a better idea of how to find it: 1. backup your document 2. delete half of your document 3. if you still get an error, go to step 2. 4. if you do not get an error after deleting half of your document, undo deleting. Go to step 2 and delete the *other* half of your document. Using the above approach you can narrow your document down and find which character is causing the issue. Best, Scott
