Cannot use percent sign (%) in a word to repeat

2 years ago
I'm trying to get "85%" to print repeatedly inside a shape and, despite trying various ways to get it to print, I could not. I suspect this is because % is a wildcard character. smile

Any known workaround or fix?

Thanks!

Hello! It should work. Could you please save your wordart and advise its name, so I could check what is wrong there?

Hi, Alex - my WordArt is called "85% v1" (without the double quotes and with space between % and v).

Thanks,

I see. You don't need to escape any characters including the percent sign. The problem is that the font you selected doesn't support the "%" character. Please choose another font and visualize to make it appear.
