Issue description
Some ligature characters (see list below) are not rendered properly in PDFs and (they may appear as empty boxes instead). 🙰 One ligature in particular, 🙰, will stop the PDF from rendering at all.
Ligatures usually end up in Lawmaker documents because text has been copied and pasted from another source such as FrameMaker or InDesign where the ligature may have been created automatically when the user entered the individual characters.
Workaround
In the Editor replace delete the ligature character with and insert the corresponding normal characters.
