---------------------------------
(In reply to comment #3)
> > request to fix this to support surrogate pairs characters.
I'm interested too, by this feature.
> thanks for your request; could you provide additional information:
> 1. what specific non-BMP characters you would like to use?
Alchemical Symbols, by example: 1F701 -> 1F704
> 2. what specific fonts will you use for these characters?
Symbola font by example.

> unicode codepoints outside of the BMP (base multilingual plane), i.e., whose
> scalar value is greater than 0xFFFF (65535), are coded as UTF-16 surrogate
> pairs in Java strings, which pair should be treated as a single codepoint for
> the purpose of mapping to a glyph in a font (that supports extra-BMP
> mappings);
> at present, FOP does not correctly handle this case in simple (non complex
> script) rendering paths;
> furthermore, though some support has been added to handle this in the complex
> script rendering path, it has not yet been tested, so is not necessarily
> working there either;
