Is there any way to access and expanded character sets available within, for example, multi-value fields? There are certain characters and symbols that Forms will not accept. When we try to cut-and-paste from Word, the symbols get stripped.
Example 1: The way a bilateral tolerance is drawn is “+”. Forms does not allow for underlined text nor does it allow the use of the equivalent symbol (Unicode character 0081). This forces us to either refer to an image attachment or use a facsimile such as “+/-“.
Example 2: Diameters are called out on drawings using “Ø”. In Word, this is entered in one of two ways, typing CTRL / + O or inserting the equivalent Unicode character. Neither is permitted when entering directly in Forms.
I suppose the answer is only plain text is available but, for our application, would be much more usable if it had a Word-like character set, permitted things like underlined text, superscripts and subscripts, and allowed the use of common symbols.
