Glyphs above number 255 not displaying

[dander53]

I am a very occasional font creator but have held onto my demo copy of TL for a few years because when I want to alter a font it is pretty easy.

The font I am working with is one that essentially creates symbols that are mapped to regular keyboard characters.

Now I have altered and added to that font more extensively and had no problems until I added glyphs beyond number 255.

The program seems comfortable creating and mapping these (regular 1252 Latin 1) to the characters I am creating.

The characters and glyphs show in the map but those numbered 256 and above do not show up in the Microsoft Office applications using them.

I'd appreciate any help - perhaps this is a built-in limit of the demo version ?

thanks

I assume you are using Type light which has no glyph limit (the demo version of Type has a glyph limit of 50 glyphs).

Try this:
On code pages mapping view, make sure the active box is checked for 1251 Latin 1. On unicode scripts mapping view, make sure that the active box is checked for basic latin and for any other unicode range that you are using.
