Missing pound signs in Franchise font causing it to break

I’ve got a WordPress built blog and I’m using the font Franchise (http://www.dafont.com/franchise.font) for the .entry-title H1s.

Franchise doesn’t have pound signs so whenever the user puts one in the title it breaks. It shows Franchise up until the pound sign, then the remaining characters afterwards come out in Arial. Anyone got any idea what I can do to fix this? I don’t mind just the pound sign being in a different font but I’m not sure how to get it to just ignore it & make the remaining characters still be in Franchise following the pound sign?

  1. You may want to change the font

    The font-family property specifies a list of fonts, from highest priority to lowest. Font selection does not simply stop at the first font named in the list that is on the user’s system. Rather, font selection is done one character at a time, so that if an available font does not have a glyph that can display a character needed, the later available fonts are tried. However, this doesn’t work in Internet Explorer.
