Carl: I will definitely do so if Unicode covers the entire set of required symbols. There is actually a list of symbols that is supported by the Across Lite format, and I’m not sure if all of them are adequately represented in Unicode or not.

Dan: there are also some puzzles that contain shapes in the answer. For instance, a heart shape. Unfortunately, Black Ink doesn’t support this yet. But they’re so rare that it isn’t too much of a shortcoming.

I once had a puzzle in which two squares contained numbers. That took a while to figure out.
