special character pickup

Hi,
I have been having trouble picking up values with a CR in a weird superscript font. For some reason these vendors can't just put a minus sign in front of the amount.

Sometimes flexicapture recognizes it as a % sign and other times something else.
Other things I am having issues with are recognizing $ signs. Depending on the font that is being used the style can be quite different.

Anyone have any good ideas for handling these odd charaters

    Stevengupta,

    I would probably try a couple things

    1) Try user pattern and see if I can create a simple user pattern that will reliably capture the CR. If not go to option 2
    2) Script it to remove anything past 2 numbers after the decimal and put the dash in the front of the field.
