Cannot create Euro Symbol I am working with text (standard Blender font) on a Mac. No problem with the currency symbols for yen, dollar, pound but somehow I cannot create the euro symbol. It should be Alt2 on a mac. Blender displays the euro symbol in the Tool Shelf (Edit Mode), but when I toggle into Object Mode the glyph won't show up.
Blender's default font for Text Objects (called "BFont") doesn't have the Euro symbol (August 2015). Import a different font, one that does have the Euro € symbol.

obj = bpy.data.objects['some_text_object']
obj.data.body = chr(8364) * 4


This would show 4 Euro symbols, if the Glyph is present in the table.
