Right now the main OpenStreetMap.org stylesheet uses Unifont as a fallback for characters not in the DejaVu font. As Unifont is designed to support all characters and not to look good, this can lead to ugly and difficult to read text in parts.
I'm looking at Thai fonts right now and would like some people to evaluate the difference between the "OpenStreetMap" and "Arundina Sans" layers on http://tile.paulnorman.ca/demo/fonts.html Some examples - Bolded refs: http://tile.paulnorman.ca/demo/fonts.html#16/13.766/100.445 - Some place names, POIs: http://tile.paulnorman.ca/demo/fonts.html#15/13.82/100.06 - Overview: http://tile.paulnorman.ca/demo/fonts.html#11/13.74/100.46 If you aren't certain you can look at the "No Unifont Fallback" layer to see if there are boxes - if there are on that layer but not the "Arundina Sans" layer, then it's using the new fonts. To clarify, since I got some unrelated responses last time, I'm not looking for feedback on glyphs in other scripts (e.g. Chinese) with this test. This test is purely for Thai characters.
