Donna, FrameMaker does not directly support the extended character sets available in many OpenType fonts. There are some registry hacks that can be performed to provide a "window" over other parts of the font, but such techniques are not supported or endorsed by Adobe AND can leave you with documents that are incompatible with future versions of FrameMaker!
