Depends on which character encoding I choose to view the page in. For the declared UTF-8, FF3 shows the invalid hex value at that spot in your page. If I override that with say ISO-8859-15, the R in a circle appears. Note that no font is involved here, just the encoding declaration. You need to get over this fixation with fonts - they have absolutely nothing to do with this issue. A font is just a graphical description of how to draw one or more code points on an output device, based on the font designer's take on what each code point should look like. It's the character encoding that tells the message recipient what code point to generate for a given bit pattern; only after the code point is determined does any font get involved to create the visible symbol.
