Question

My paragraph tags for step first, step next and warning appear as "??". Does anyone know how to fix this?

    What are the ?? intended to be?

    I'm guessing some sort of symbol or icon, since the numbers appear.

    This could be case of the font involved not populating the code point for some Unicode glyph you are trying to use.

    Hi Bob,

    The ?? is supposed to be Step 1, Step 2 , etc... If it is the font code not populating, how can I fix this?

    re: The ?? is supposed to be Step 1, Step 2 , etc...

    For either of those "Step..." Paragraph Formats, in Paragraph Designer, Numbering tab, what is specified in Autonumber Format: ?
    And Character Format:

    I would expect it to look something like:

    [Step\ <n+>\t               ]
    and Character Format: [Default ¶ Font]
    where
    "Step" are simple literal characters
    "\ " is mark-up for a non-breaking space (optional)
    "<n+>" is an increment-count FM Building Block
    "\t" is mark-up for a Tab character (as desired)


    This is now looking less like a font/Unicode problem, and more like something else. What version of FM by the way?
