Re: Finding a font but without fallback

I haven't seen a response yet.

Is querying for fonts without fallback not possible, or is it that 
folks don't know (or is the answer so obvious you have refrained from 
replying :^)?

Any response, including a "I always want fallback to happen, so I 
don't know the answer" appreciated. Feel free to email me privately as well.

Best,
Sairus
