hi!!!

I recently did a site for a spanish language online magazine where the text is loaded dynamically. My problem isn't actually loading the .txt . The thing is that spanish-language punctuations like á, é, í, ó, ú and ñ get truncated. The dynamic textbox has the font embedded, and the font I'm using has the vowel and ñ punctuations that get truncated.
How may I correct this???? I've tried everything!!! I had to get rid of the punctuations, but I HAVE to include them because of the grammatical and syntax problems not having them makes.

P-L-E-A-S-E HELP!!
I'm DESPERATE!!!!!!!!!

Are you including the whole font as opposed to the regular letters and numbers? They may consider those foreign letters as symbols and misc character. Try embedding the entire font.

try encoding (unicode) the special chars in the textfile..

thanks!
I figured it out...
I just had to save the .txt with Unicode encoding, NOT ANSI...
You cleared my problem right away!
