Perhaps we should make the fallback strategy external from where it is applied and perhaps configurable. Maybe the 'char => fallback char' mapping can be externalized in a similiar way to that of the base-14 font metrics. Commiting improvements to this mapping - or even supporting customization of - would then be decoupled from the /src/java codebase. -- Configure bugmail: https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
