      Hi,

      I’m trying to change the whitespace and replacement character (black diamond with a white question mark ?) to other characters on Find/Change – MT-SCRIPT.
      Is there any way to do this? I’ve tried to put between “<>”, “%%” or “$$” and a GREP syntax, like \x{0020} .. But it didn’t work.

      (U+0020) – Space
      (U+FFFD) – Replacement

      Thank you!

      Hey Bruno,

      For some reason they made Unicode hard to search, I had to search and search to figure out how to find a Unicode character range in InDesign a while back.

      Try this,

      Find: \x{0020}
      Replace: \x{FFFD}

      Thank you for your help, Aaron!

      But apparently the codes that work in GREP does not work to find characters in MT-Script. :(
      I think the developer did not make a way to change these special characters…
