Hmmmmm, well, I took a look -- didn't previously understand what
character you were looking for.
Character_Sets.pdf tells you how to get a bunch of characters into your
FM document. However, eng is not one of them.
I believe you need to find and buy a font that supports eng in its lower
256 spaces, create a character tag, and apply the character tag as
needed.
Cheers,
Sean

I looked in the online manuals that Sean recommended, and found under
the Unicode symbols section:
014A; Eng; LATIN CAPITAL LETTER ENG
I don't understand how this information is helpful? What if anything can
I do with the code, 014A?
I am mystified.
