Special Characters not display correctly


Recommended Posts

By simple copy-paste txt from a PDF to a new document, the special characters are replaced with stupid signs.

Can you share the PDF file (or another one that demonstrates the problem)?

What created the PDF file? What options were chosen in that application when saving the PDF, especially those relating to embedding of fonts?

I get the glyph if I make a new text frame and paste in that  or use the Art Text tool to hold the copied text.

Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.6 
Affinity Designer 2.5.5 | Affinity Photo 2.5.5 | Affinity Publisher 2.5.5 | Beta versions as they appear.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.
