#03700: Inaccessible characters in Windows fonts
Issue
Sometimes, certain characters that you create may not show on screen or print, while all the other
characters are fine. This only occurs with characters outside the main keyboard locations.
Reason
This is because there are certain slots (character positions in Fontographer's Font window) that you
cannot use in an ANSI encoded Windows font. If your character was placed in one of those slots, when
Fontographer creates the font, it must reposition the character at the end of the font.
Note that anything placed prior to the space character (decimal 32) will not be usable, as Windows has
no access to characters in slots 0 - 31.
The following character slots are not usable for a font with the standard ANSI character set.
