I am missing several symbols in the middle of the fonts. I tried to send you a picture of one of the fonts to show you, but it would not past.
Do you know how to correct this problem?

All of the fonts have some "undefined" codes and in some cases, the same character is in the same font more than once. That's just the way they are defined.

Even the PCStitch Symbols?
On Pattern Maker all of them, but PCStitch Symbols I only see 1-94, the next 34 are missing, next 13 are shown, one missing, then I see the rest.
Other fonts have different ones missing that I can see in Pattern Maker

There are three PCStitch fonts. All have some empty spots. I have several Cross-Stitch fonts that are even more sparse. To use all the symbols that I want to use, I often have to use up to 7 different fonts on the SAME pattern. It is nice that it is possible to do just that. Each color can have a unique palette color definition and symbol definition.

I know that, but why does one program have the symbols and PCStitch does not?

Each company is different. There are some symbols that PCStitch has that aren't in the others. That's why I pick and choose.

I did ask Mark recently if there were a way to tell PCStitch to only list what Windows fonts that you want in that area. He said no but it was a good idea.

Even if the same characters are in different company's fonts, they're in different places and that can be very confusing.
