How are you adding the special characters?


In the American English version, I can add pretty much any "special character" by going to Edit > Special Characters (Option-Command-T) to get the system font characters. I've mostly been adding accented Latin characters, which may or may not work for you, but I haven't had any crashes adding characters this way. Pretty clunky if you have a lot of accented letters, but fine for the occasional one.

It happens to me all the time! And it ***** since, well, it's supposed to be a pro app, right? Living in Mexico (and applies to all Spanish and accent-language users), presenting a text without the proper grammar is like not differentiating between you're and your -it's just plain un professional.



Sadly, I see I'm not the only one with the issue...
