Can you please list examples of where it happens (what story/reference node). I had fixed this a while ago and if there are any still in it, they might be one-off exceptions. I've spent 10 minutes randomly checking story, NPC, and references and have been unable to find any issue. I need a little direction on where to look. Thanks.

Gonna make a better bug report when I have time, right now I can't test it again.

Generally these issues should get posted in the Official Pathfinder Modules Bug Report Thread (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?38100-Official-Pathfinder-Modules-Bug-Report-Thread).

And this sort of issue was recently discussed there, but for a different module:

This is for the Reign of Winter adventure path.
...not a huge fan of all the apostrophes and quotes being unidentified characters that show as boxes

This is because that module has not been properly updated for Unity yet.

I can only speak for myself, but now that Classic has been sunset, I will be going through all my projects and switching them to UTF-8 and correct (per the Unity parser) character codes over the coming weeks. No idea if my PF1E projects even have funky characters but if they do, I'll get to them eventually.
