LMS-110 Ligature Characters not rendering in PDF

Issue description

Some ligature characters (see list below) are not rendered properly in PDFs (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 delete the ligature character and insert the corresponding normal characters.
