Why is it possible to specify an font(name) and SM shows on the screen
the picture of the character ?..... EXCEPT for the Wingdings FONT ?
It works in all other browsers making Firefox incompatible with all others.

Because the Gecko engine works through Unicode. It sees "J", converts it
to the corresponding Unicode code point, and looks up that code point in
the font. Wingdings is not an Unicode font, and does not list that
Unicode code point as available; therefore, Gecko falls back to another
font.

Thanks, i appreciate your explanation. Therefore all programs based on Gecko cannot do what other browsers can.
