For instance, I thought I should get a symbol if I type &amp;quot;F2004&amp;quot; (without the quotes)&amp;nbsp;and then press the ALT and X keys at the same time.&amp;nbsp; That&amp;#39;s how it&amp;#39;s working in Office products.&amp;nbsp; Is this an incorrect workflow for ORD?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;However, regardless of whether the key-ins work, the symbols are now showing up, so that&amp;#39;s a huge improvement - especially for a Friday afternoon.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here is a fix for the Bentley Defect. This will allow the ODOTCADD symbols to be available for use.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;all the characters in the font show up in MicroStation Connect, office products (word, excel...) pretty much all programs except ORD. This is just a defect with ORD and not our font. Hopefully it is fixed soon since we have the defect filed with Bentley.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This is something we have found across multiple fonts that are TTF in ORD. What it looks like on my end is that the Unicode library is half coded in ORD so many of the symbols in multiple fonts won&amp;#39;t come in. This is a known issue that has defects files because of it.&lt;/p&gt;
