Hello!

I did resolve my problem of getting all the required glyphs in PDF
generated from AsciiDoc via dblatex, but considering there are not so
many complete Unicode fonts covering all the symbols which we might
regularly need, I wonder if there is some easy way to mix e.g two fonts
within AsciiDoc document - one would be used for regular text and
another when we need to display different symbols from the specialized
'symbol font' having all the required glyphs?

One way would be, I assume, to use monospaced text and select Symbol
font as 'monospaced' font, but I wonder if there is something else?

I've asked the same thing in the dblatex thing and the answer was to use
some trickery in the xetex file or to use something like:

For instance, tag the text with 
<phrase xml:lang='ben'>...</phrase>, 
and create an xsl transform something like
    <xsl:template match="phrase[lang='ben']">
      <xsl:text>\benBengScript{</xsl:text>
      <xsl:apply-templates/>
      <xsl:text>}</xsl:text>
    </xsl:template>


but I wonder if there is some mechanism to mix fonts within AsciiDoc
document?


Sincerely,
Gour
