Font support

[Lill Therese Jacobsen]

Hi!   We are developing a website that will include (at least) the following languages: Russian, persian, somali, kurdish, norwegian, arabic, urdu and english.   I’m looking for a (windows-)font that supports all these languages (with all the necessary characters).   I understand that there are no single standard windows font that supports all the characters we need. But does anyone have a list of which font is prefered for each language? I’ve been told that Tahoma is the prefered font for urdu and persian. I can use Tahoma or Arial for english, norwegian and russian. But what about somali and arabic?   Any help appreciated!   Regards, Lill Therese
