    I have a textbox that has this in it:

    ‹(•¿•)›

    And I can't get it to display right. It does vertical bars for most of the characters.

    You can only use standard Characters in a textbox or rich text box, as default. By standard I mean, exactly as they appear on the keyboard. This is because ASCII standards have set it up that way. I would suggest coding them in (If there is a numeric representation available for each individual Character through ASCII) I have not looked them up.

    If all else fails save the characters as an Image, and stick it in an ImageBox

    Font size will not matter.
