Im looking at the problem of mixing ranges of unicode from different fonts, to act as a 'virtual' font. Sometimes you want a distro to configure this, or the user override - eg mozilla had a dialog to choose preferred font per language [for sans, serif, mono] Please clarify - can this be done already in fonts.conf. Is anyone working on a GUI to select preferred font for a unicode range, which updates fonts.conf - like mozilla approach, but useful for all desktop apps. Mixing arbitrary unicode ranges into a virtual font might be needed when some fonts have just a few bad characters [eg numbers], but normally mixing would be by language. Ideas on how to approach it [if not done already]? Also, is there a way I can get a dump of what font covers what U+ range? ie.what fc resolved to. gord. ___________________________________________________________ALL-NEW Yahoo!
