Need quick help with a FONT.

Here is a link to a font as I'm needing the "e" for estimated weight sign for some food labels I'm currently working on, but I can seem to access it, but this is showing it there, I have installed the font fine, but not getting half the symbols, is their some way to access the rest of them I dont know about, looking at the tables on the top and bottom like I have to hold something to get to them.

Try using character map. You can see all the symbols of a font and copy them directly.

Yea still not displaying it, getting some of those square boxes you get when it cant display something, must be a problem with the font...damn it!

Some font's have special items outside the character map IIRC. You might need to find a copy of the manual for the font (yes some fonts have manuals). Might tell you in there.

Try the alt codes. They match the numbers on the chart you posted. e.g. the smiley is ALT+0169, butterfly should be 0253 and so on.

Literally knew of the alt plus code thing but never needed it, think I have found the right code.
