-------------------------------------------------------------

Neither Windings nor Webdings1/2/3 contains the necessary glyphs to be used as 
a substitute for Zapf Dingbats. I did some research and "Arial Unicode MS" 
which ships with Windows does have full coverage of the Unicode "Dingbats" 
range, and fortunately for us all of the Zapf Dingbats characters are present 
in Unicode and we already have the mapping for these in the glyph list file 
(zapfdingbats.txt) which we currently ship.

I'm going to add Arial Unicode MS to our built-in substation list for 
ZapfDingbats, it's PostScript name is 
"arialuni".
