Does "only if font is not available" mean if the font of the document does not

If the font you are using does not have the specific glyph, but does
have glyphs in the same sub-range, then the font is silently
substituted.
I am happy to learn that the program is written in the best way I can
think of. But still, the character doesn't show and a space is appears
instead if the font applied to it is not the one that contains it (Deja
Vu Sans)...
If it lacks the entire range, then squares are
substituted.
I added Arial to Deja Vu Sans in the configuration table. When I apply
Arial to the character, a square is substituted.
This operation is done regardless of how the Font
Replacement Table is configured.
I suppose this means regardless the checkboxes checked, right?
Also, it's the first time I hear about OOo forks. Does it mean
developers' versions of OOo that haven't become official?
No.
The major forks are:
* NoGo OOo, which is found mainly on Linux;
* Sun OOo, which is found mainly on Windows;
* NeoOffice, which is found mainly on Mac OS X;

My operating system being Windows, I suppose aI have the Sun OOo fork.
Can you make the character appear in your Writer without using font that
contains it?
Thanks,
