The square can also mean that the unicode font used, does not have the
specified character. Just like when people with an IOS device (iPhone) post
emoticons native to IOS. On Windows and Android you see a rectangle with a
cross, replacing the missing symbols.
Either you should use the same font as Autocad did for the arrows to work,
or you need to replace the arrow character with a similar character from the
font you use for the labels in MapGuide.
Arial font have the left and right arrow defined as:
U+2190: ←
U+2192: →
If you can update the column holding the arrow characters with those
symbols, they should display correct in MapGuide.

Best regards Hans Milling...
