A question mark is a sign of a bad conversion from Unicode (to a code page that did not contain the character). This would likely happen on the Mac too rather than the Last Resort font, wouldn't it?
On Windows, the "cannot find a font for it" situation is the NULL glyph. The Last Resort font is cool but a Code2000 stab at the actual glyph is (IMHO) cooler than both.:-) MichKa ----- Original Message ----- From: "Michael Everson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, July 18, 2003 1:42 PM Subject: Re: About the European MES-2 subset > At 11:28 -0400 2003-07-18, John Cowan wrote: > > >However, a font like Last Resort (the world's smallest giant font, as it were) > >does that just about as well. > > While I hate seeing the Last Resort font show up, I love seeing it > when it does. :-) Soooo much better than "?". > -- > Michael Everson * * Everson Typography * * http://www.evertype.com > >
