Special characters on Mac

devlinkieran — Mon, 21 Nov 2022 12:25:26 GMT

I'm using Mac Auto CAD and having trouble getting special characters to display.

I'm trying to use counterbore and depth symbols but just get square symbols (unrecognised symbol)

What do I need to do to get these to display properly?

Unfortunately there wasn't any help on that page.
I'm using horizontal text - all the text displays except the special characters

To display correctly special symbols in MTEXT, you need to use Arial Unicode MS font.

To insert special symbol - use this button in Text Editor Visor:

This works!

Thanks so much
