No, they do not. For instance, in recent versions of Times New Roman, you will find 208 glyphs that are not encoded at some code point. They are accessible via lookup rules in various OpenType tables within the font, but not via the cmap table (it's the cmap that determines what is directly encoded at some code point). - Peter --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Peter Constable Non-Roman Script Initiative, SIL International 7500 W.
