I am new to Revit Architecture 2010. I was always able to use the windows Alt keycodes in my text boxes. Now in any project that is in 2010, I am getting really strange chinese symbols or box symbols instead of the degree and diameter symbols?? Anyone have any reasoning to this??

Yea, I'm sure we've never used any other font?? I even checked using the keycodes thru other programs, just in case it was my computer, but they all worked fine too? Things like this are so frustrating?
