@wrynearson A user brought this to my attention today. It is someone that is actively working on several ATBDs.

Hi @bwbaker1, I wasn't able to reproduce this. I tested with this document and added a bunch of "special characters" (like ©, ® and 😀, 🌍, 🎉, 👋 and ₂ ²) to the 2nd image caption in the "Additional Information" subsection.

They all rendered correctly in the PDF preview and exported PDF.

Did you see this issue in more than this document? Which document was it in?

@wrynearson Interesting. I created a new document and still had the issue. I did an end-to-end screen recording so you can see exactly what I am doing.

Thank you so much for the screen recording! They're super helpful for debugging issues.

I see that you used the rich text editor and that everything after the bolded text was cut out. That's different than how I tested it (adding non-ASCII characters that I copied in from elsewhere). Using your method, I'm able to reproduce the issue.

@batpad @kamicut @vgeorge – any ideas as to what's happening?
