Right but this isn't too tricky - I wouldn't even consider it a variety puzzle

There's a special symbol behind some of the squares, and digital tools aren't allowing me to put the "picture" behind the text square (I need more than just a circle)

If I made a puzzle that was best solved as a PDF, would you solve it? Or would you prefer a digital version even if the theme couldn't be represented as cleanly?

New crossword podcast on the block! Worth a listen if you're at all interested in how to make crossword puzzles. (Not to be confused with the myriad "cross talk" podcasts with a religious bent)
