Cent signs and copyright symbols show up as question marks. What in the heck I am doing wrong/missing. I made the copyright line a .gif on this page thinking I was a smart guy, then saw the same problem when I entered cent signs…

Im using Firefox on a G5 with 10.3.9 still. Is it my machine, does anybody else see the cent signs?

Use “¢” for cents and “©” for copyright. No quotes, btw.

Hi Greg, are you using:

Are you placing the code ¢ into an inline markup item? So for
example it would look like .63[inline markup item].

Take a look at your page in a browser, and view source. RIght up near
the top, you should see a line that looks something like this:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/>
Take note of what charset is defined for your page. If you use UTF-8,
and a browser that understands Unicode (most do, even recent versions
of That Other Browser) then you should be fine.
In all cases, Freeway will create encoded versions of any characters
that cannot be described in the page’s character set, without any
sort of intervention on your part.
Click on the Output (far right) tab of the Inspector when you have
your page selected. Look at the current value of the Encoding picker
at the bottom of the Inspector. If you leave it on Automatic (the
default), then the page should be output as UTF-8, which means that
these particular characters are not going to be encoded. Only if you
choose an encoding scheme that does not support these characters will
you see them made into entity escapes.

THANKS!
I was changing it in Doc prefs, but it had no effect until I changed it at the page level, even changing it on the master didnt stick to the pages.
This was an old 3.5 file opened in 4.x, I have never changed the default encoding from Freeway, cant explain how it changed/ended up Western ISO Latin 1.

Changing the doc prefs only changes the setting for new pages. Existing pages stay the way they were set last.
