Mike, you said:
I don't want bold, italic or underlined.
I don't want serifs. I don't want dingbats (other than those officialy
encoded). I don't want colors. I JUST WANT TO KNOW WHAT THE FREAKIN'
CHARACTER IS!!!
I agree with you entirely. But the situation is *better* than you suggest.
Peter,
If you want, you can restore the database on another server using ID 1033 and then
transfer all objects by DTS from that server onto your server in ID 2057.
It works.

Yes,
script and symbol use by mathematicians ad scientists is well researched. The
outcome of this research is the STIX proposal for additional math characters
to be added in UNicode.
You may also want to consult the pages on MathML at http://www.w3c.org

Well, you want serifs. I, l, 1.
Those aren't differentiated by serifs - the differentiators are part
of the character. In any case, when I encounter a difficult bit like this,
I intend to do exactly what I did just now - look at it
you can also learn some trick about font linking by looking at our open source

That would argue for a set of Unicode fonts, rather than one monolithic font.
