The foreign language experts here would need to know: (1) InDesign version, (2) Exact operating system, (3) Font name and version.

Hi,

I would suggest that the font that is active in the text frame that you are pasting into does not support the characters that you are using. Note the pink highlighting which means the font is missing. If you can change the text to the correct font your characters should appear.

Regards,

Malcolm

It is not the missing-font pink highlight, it's the missing-glyph pink highlight. There is a huge difference: a missing font can be trivially fixed by installing that missing font -- as InDesign helpfully tells you the exact name -- or by replacing it with a similar one. For missing glyphs, however, you must manually hunt down any font to contain the missing characters. For those, InDesign doesn't tell you any more than "nope, not in this font; please try another".

It looks like OP would benefit from some politely yet firm pointing out a good starters' guide, something like Sandee Cohen's "Visual Quickstart for [insert your version here]" perhaps.

(Ah -- how do I know it indeed marks "glyphs" and not "fonts"? Because the visible digits and the "missing glyph" glyph look suspiciously much alike those from the default font for new documents: Minion Pro. One could assume the 'right' font got copied for the wavy text (in which case it may also be missing) but then the digits would be in that font as well. Unless the web page uses Minion Pro, which is far less likely than a simple user misunderstanding, per seigneur Occam and his shaving implements.)

Do you look for a font that contains those glyphs (it's thai isn't it?) or the exact same font than on the website?

In the first case, you can try Arial Unicode or the font that Word "arbitrary" applies...

Also, you should have a set of fonts (not sure what program they are installed with... Word? Indesign?) that contain those glyphs.

FYI, here's what I have:

If you want to find the exact same font than on the website, use the Inspector in your browser. I.e. in chrome, this Font-family property is "Tahoma". Be aware web-fonts are not the same than your local ones, even if they have the same name (i.e. Arial). I strongly recommend the Preflight panel is set up with a missing Glyph warning profile.
