Unfortunately we must not change the font, so now I don’t know what to do. So the error seems to be related with the font instance or the fact that the character had no Unicode index in that font. I tried to change this arrow with the same looking glyph from the other instance of Zapf Dingbats and it was all right. Even the character-count of the paragraph became 1 less than the length of the string. Nothing appeared in it’s place, not even a question mark or an invisible character that we would have to step over by the cursor-right key. In the alert window the special character was there/visible (a question mark-like thing replaced the glyph) but after the script stopped I found the string text in Indesign without the arrow character. In a different instance of Zapf Dingbats font it has the Unicode number 276F. In this font the given glyph had no Unicode number, it looked similar to a > sign. This character was formatted using one instance of the Zapf Dingbats font. I tried to replace the original content of the paragraph with the string but this character was simply left out. Given a paragraph with some text in it and a string containing a special character in the middle.
