+# Supported Encodings and Non-ASCII Characters
+
+GMT supports a number of encodings and each encoding contains a set of ASCII and non-ASCII
+characters. Below are a few of the most common encodings and the characters they support.
+
+In PyGMT, you can use any of these ASCII and non-ASCII characters in arguments and text
+strings. When use non-ASCII characters in PyGMT, the easiest way is to copy and paste
+the character from the tables below.
+
+**Note**: The special character � (REPLACEMENT CHARACTER) is used to indicate that
+the character is not defined in the encoding.

+Adobe character encodings supported by GMT.
+
+Currently, only Adobe Symbol, Adobe ZapfDingbats, and Adobe ISOLatin1+ encodings are
+supported.
+
+The corresponding Unicode characters in each Adobe chararacter encoding are generated
+from the mapping table and conversion script in the GMT-octal-codes
+(https://github.com/seisman/GMT-octal-codes) repository. Refer to that repository for
+details.
+
+Some code points are undefined and are assigned with the replacement characeter
+(``\ufffd``).
