The standard analyzer will discard most special characters as punctuation.
What analyzer are you using?

Subject: Searching with String that Represents a Signature
We have OCR a document with a signature, you can select the signature and
copy the text representation for searching in a lucene 4.7 index. We have
surrounded the search text with double quotes since it has invalid search
characters without the use of the double quotes.
Search Text: ":J!/z&” when we search using this string I get hits that don’t
match the 6 characters. Do we have to use a / as an escape character?
