Oh. Thanks for the info. I was indeed wondering why people were using that
font so much.

I see. But if all this was done more than a year ago, the font should be
ready now. I hope we don't have to wait for WinXP's successor.

No! View some text with diacritics with a standard core font like Times
New Roman with some Gecko browser like NS 7.0. The diacritics chop up the
words.

Fonts that chop up the words if you use diacritics: Sina, Microsoft and
old Borna.
Fonts that work: the new Borna fonts that are on Borna's site right now.
