Font are licensed with specific software and operating systems.
Arial Unicode MS was never supplied with Microsoft Windows.

It was supplied with Microsoft Office suite applications, and I don't 
recall seeing it much after Office 2003, when Microsoft started 
distributing other fonts such as Calibri, and Consolas.



Microsoft stopped "servicing and updating" the font, but you can 
purchase updated versions from Monotype.
Microsoft also stopped supporting some older font types in their Office 
products.

Arial Unicode MS may no longer be available in Wndows 10, but I believe that is 
because the base Arial font was made Unicode compatible and expanded to include 
a large number of Unicode glyphs. I think you should use the Windows Character 
Map tool to view the new and improved Arial font, which *is* part of the 
standard Windows 10 environment,  to see whether it include all the code points 
you require.

Subject: [Framers] Char out of range: 13

I get a Char out of range: 13 error message when saving a FM 2017 .mif file as 
a FM 2017 .fm file in several languages. The error doesn't appear to make a 
difference in the FM file, but when I print to PDF, the character(s) that are 
out of range appear as rectangle boxes. I used to fix this by converting the 
font to Arial Unicode MS. With the latest Windows 10 upgrade, Arial Unicode MS 
is no longer an option. I tried switching to Aktiv Grotesk as suggested on the 
forum, but that doesn't work for some of the characters in Czech or Polish 
(there may be characters in other languages as well, but those are the two 
problematic ones right now). Does anyone have any idea what I can try? Thanks 
in advance.

Ramona
