Sorry, I did not intend this message to be addressed at you, as you are certainly a responctable typographer, and even if I know that you designed the LastResort font glyphs for Apple. (Is this font only available for Mac and shipped licensed with Mac OS?). And was not a personnal offence against someone. Well, I don't know if the LastResort font can be used on other systems like Windows, the same way as on the Mac as a last resort font for missing glyphs, as I did not see where in Windows one could specify a ordered stack of prefered fonts for a particular script, as the current Windows/IE GUI only allows specifying 1 font per script. My opinion is that Windows (and even MacOSX or other GUIs) could be even more user-friendly, by allowing creating such stack of preferred fonts per script, or at least a single ordered stack of fonts for characters not found in the unique font specified for each script, this stack acting as the equivalent of a "LastResort" virtual font. __________________________________________________________________ << ella for Spam Control >> has removed Spam messages and set aside Newsletters for me You can use it too - and it's FREE! http://www.ellaforspam.com
