## FAQ

  Some characters are missing

This is an infrequent, but known issue.
 Support for non-English characters and 
special characters has improved over past versions, but is still not 100%. If the
plugin finds a character is does not recognize, it will be replaced with a box, 
making it easy to fix manually in InDesign. If you come across this, please email
the TaggedText file and a link to the live post on your site to plugins@dirtysuds.

  Something is broken, or I have a great idea.
