C++ printing unicode characters gives question marks
I want to start by saying I know how to print Unicode characters to console using _setmode(_fileno(stdout), _O_U16TEXT). The problem I have is with printing Unicode characters that are "non-standard". For example, when I try to print ▁ ▂ ▃ ▄ ▅ ▆ ▇ █ ▇ ▆ ▅ ▄ ▃ ▁ using wprintf, it returns this:
The project is set to "Unicode Character Set" and visual studio is showing the characters fine when showing them from file.
I found the answer and put it below
From what I have found so far. there is no easy work around except for using another font which does include those characters. What I ended up doing was just editing the font using Fontlab. If anyone else ends up follow my footsteps. once you finish editing:
- change the font name unless you want to overwrite the existing font (wouldn't recommend)
- EXPORT AS TTF
I don't know why but when exporting as otf, the console shows the wrong characters.
