Specific russian character disapearing when Maplex is on

Question

I have the following problem. I need to make automatic labeling from the existing column. When I use a simple labeling, the character "�??" is visible, but if I use Maplex (10.1) labeling, this symbol is not visible. It is replaced by a space sign instead. This character is from Cyrillic code page, and it is corresponds to sign "#" from English code page. For example, if feature attribute is "Раз. �??1", label looks like " Раз.  1". Does anyone know why it�??s happens and how to solve this? Russian-speaking dealers could not help me. Appeal to Russian-speaking forums did not help, too. Thank you.

Try building into a Maplex expression the specific font. I have a situation where I need to use two fonts in the same label. Here is the exact code I use. It give me an Arrow when I use the correct character. [Description] & "" & [Arrow] & ""& [Description2] & vbnewline & [Description3] The Description fields are my 3 label fields and Wingdings 3 is the font I am using. The arrow field is where I enter the character i want. In my case for example a = sign gives me a right arrow. I have the following problem.

Hello, I have taken a look at this and can see the issue. All I can tell you is that the problem is not present at version 10.2 if that's any help.
