Unable to print Ohm symbol in PDF

Hi wedsady,

Which font do you use? Do you get the Ohm character in other applications like Word? As others said: Does your font have the Ohm character?

When I press ALT+234 I get Û (checked with Calibri, Arial, etc.). From ALT+224 to ALT+252 I get other characters than in the tables. I do not know, if I do anything differently.

… and you have to be sure that the font you use (especially if you have to change font just for the sake of special symbols) can be used in a .pdf.

Windows [Alt]+234 inserts a:
[Ω] U+03A9 GREEK CAPITAL LETTER OMEGA
if the font populates that code point (and most non-legacy fonts do)
For pendantic semantic correctness, what you might have wanted is:
[Ω] U+2126 OHM SIGN
which is less well represented in fonts.

Your system Character Map should provide clues.

Does the font you're using support that glyph? That might be a starting point to investigate.
