    Cannot access Private Use Characters in character map


    Hi there. I just bought a new Lenovo ideapad flex5 and am having an issue with the character map.


    I purchased fonts and after downloading them to my computer, the glyphs / private use characters are not showing up in character map.


    I've used these fonts before on other computers, so i know there are glyphs available, they just won't show up in the map.


    I've viewed under Unicode > subrange private use and nothing.


    Can someone please help me figure this out? It's driving me crazy!

    :)

    Windows Character Map Private Characters

    How do I insert a private character (made using the Private Character Editor) into a document? The Character Map instructions are not helpful as they only work with the special characters already contained in the map.
