I don’t have Flash open, not sure if these characters are in there but try selecting your text field and in the property inspector click on the ‘characters’ button. You may be able to specify the special characters to imbed.

Hmm…well make sure your text box x and y is on whole integers (ex: 4.0, 8.0 not 5.3, 7.3 etc…). That may help?
