    Go to Help > Updates to see if you've got the last version of FM2017 installed. Have you tried printing to the Adobe PDF printer instance?

    Lots of possibilities, some listed by Jeff already.

    Usually that has something to do with the font you're using and the code point of the symbol. What version of FM are you running? & are you all patched up? & how are you creating the PDF?

    Hi.

    We are using FM17. 

    What does patched up mean?

    When i make PDF file i mark the 4 files in frame maker, and klick save as pdf. 

    And I use Acrobat Destiller..

    Being on the latest point release & update for your base version of FM.

    You can find your current version via:

    Which for FM2019 might say something like
    Version: 15.0.5.838

    which isn't current, and is easily remedied by
