Why is � not listed in the Windows character table?

So there is "�", the replacement character 0xFFFD, the symbol for a byte-sequence that is not represented as a character in Unicode (right?).

Well, I wonder what 'is' this 'thing' actually,开发者_开发百科 as I can't 'see'/'find' it in Windows' character table, neither searching for the symbol itself, nor searching for FFFD. But after all it is a character, right? So it should be in there. I am confused ...

The font Arial does probably not contain a corresponding glyph to represent that character. Try a different font like Arial Unicode or Arial Unicode MS.
