arrows are not displayed in PDF

[magyarcs]

I cannot have the arrows displayed correctly in PDF. They currently appear as #.

Does anyone know a code for arrows?

Thanks,
Csaba

Hello,

How do you create the PDF? Do you run a transformation in Oxygen? Is that a built-in transformation in Oxygen? If yes please specify the name of the transformation and the Unicode code of the character that is not displayed correctly.

Hi Sorin,

I have description on moving the cursor in different directions, and arrow signs are displaying these movements:
← → ↑ ↓
←↑→↓

I use DITA OT transformation in Oxygen.

Usually these characters are not included in the actual system fonts (from the operating system) that are mapped by default by the PDF reader application to the fonts specified in the PDF, that is Times-Roman and Helvetica. For example on my system Times-Roman is mapped to Times New Roman and Helvetica is mapped to Arial. I suggest setting a specific font for the body content of the DITA topics using this procedure from the Oxygen User Manual, for example the Arial Unicode MS font.
