We use Tahoma on our world-wide country sites and so far, it has worked fine for all of the character sets we've come across.

The only way which works always is to use device fonts: "_sans", "_serif", or "_typewriter". You cannot specify the font, because there is no such font that contains all the characters used in all the languages in the world! By the way it does not make any differences between those 3 device fonts - some languages display in generic sans font but some other does in serif, regardless of the font settings.
