This problem also shows up when using the Adobe Source Code Pro font, which is
[missing a few
characters|https://github.com/adobe-fonts/source-code-pro/issues/172] commonly
found in README files, for example. The only font I could find that displays
the "U+2714 ✔ HEAVY CHECK MARK" character is DejaVu Sans Mono. I'm attaching
screenshots that show the character in NetBeans using both DejaVu Sans Mono and
Source Code Pro Medium.
On Ubuntu, it would be great to be able to define DejaVu Sans Mono as a general
fallback font.
