Re: [Framers] Char out of range: 13
Font are licensed with specific software and operating systems. Arial Unicode MS was never supplied with Microsoft Windows. It was supplied with Microsoft Office suite applications, and I don't recall seeing it much after Office 2003, when Microsoft started distributing other fonts such as Calibri, and Consolas. Microsoft stopped "servicing and updating" the font, but you can purchase updated versions from Monotype. Microsoft also stopped supporting some older font types in their Office products.

Re: [Framers] Char out of range: 13
Arial Unicode MS may no longer be available in Wndows 10, but I believe that is because the base Arial font was made Unicode compatible and expanded to include a large number of Unicode glyphs. I think you should use the Windows Character Map tool to view the new and improved Arial font, which *is* part of the standard Windows 10 environment, to see whether it include all the code points you require. -FR From: Framers on behalf of Blackmon, Ramona Sent: Thursday, August 13, 2020 6:46 PM To: framers@lists.frameusers.com Subject: [Framers] Char out of range: 13 I get a Char out of range: 13 error message when saving a FM 2017 .mif file as a FM 2017 .fm file in several languages. The error doesn't appear to make a difference in the FM file, but when I print to PDF, the character(s) that are out of range appear as rectangle boxes.
