Invoice - Support macron character for Māori words
Kia ora,
I live and operate in New Zealand, where Xero was first created. With living in New Zealand, we use a lot of Māori words in our everyday lives.
That said, I just created a quote for an upcoming photoshoot which is going to be held in a town in the Bay of Plenty called Ōmokoroa. But fortunately, the marcon that appears above the Ō turns into an L when the quote is exported. Can you please let the development team know about this issue please?

Appreciate you raising this, Caleb. Supporting macrons consistently throughout Xero could help ensure names and other information are recorded accurately.
We've moved this idea to Gaining Support so we can continue gathering feedback. We'll keep the team updated on the interest and use cases shared here as they consider future improvements.

I would like to add this is very important. It also links to the following product idea raised back in 2022!! https://productideas.xero.com/forums/967130-contacts-files/suggestions/45712846-contacts-allow-macrons-for-languages-such-as-te
It reflects very poorly on a business when on the front end the macrons appear fine but when the invoice or quote is sent to a client and their name or your descriptions are illegible on the PDF. Its very embarrassing!
