Cyberbit Bitstream also has a lot of glyphs. You may use FontSelector to switch automatically fonts according to glyph availability but if you want a job well done you'll select the fonts yourself. There are many fonts out there but you'll have a lot of surprises if you read the license's fine print. There are a list of fonts at http://www.travelphrases.info/fonts.html.

In looking in the web postings I figured out how to use the arial unicode font and Identity-H encoding to allow all of the characters to be shown. My issue now is that, for the English, I wanted to use a nicer font than Arial (something like Times New Roman). Do you know of a good way to use mixed fonts like this? I was thinking that I could write a method that would take each String one character at a time and figure out what font it was best suited for (regular ASCII would be in Times, anything two-byte would be in Arial), do you think this would work? Also, do you know of other fonts besides Arial that include all of the characters.
