 Dear Hans,

Thank you for working on this. I have tried version 2020.09.20: Unicode
input works for the "Private Use Area" Unicodes reported in
\ShowCompleteFont. Such Unicodes are, however, not desirable. Moreover, in
MKIV, a Unicode U+2713 (Check Mark) in the input did produce the
ZapfDingbats check, e.g. as follows:

\definefontsynonym[ZapfDingbats][file:ZapfDingbats][features=dingbats]
\definefont[zapfdingbats][ZapfDingbats]
\starttext
{\zapfdingbats ✓}
\definedfont[name:ZapfDingbats]✓
\stoptext

I still get no check mark in the output PDF and a log message "char ✓
(U+02713) in font 'ZapfDingbats-4' with id 8: missing". Am I using the font
wrongly?
(This has not a high priority for me, because I have the unified access by
glyph index.)

Christoph
