Kazuaki, Taka, Hajime Please note that I will not be able to review your tests for a few days for work reasons. I must also catch up on a long list of things, matters that I have delayed over time, during weeks. So it may take me a week or 10 days before I reply to you. I have read all of your emails. I now think the best way to deal with the font issue is to create a customized "DejaVu Serif" font variant (especially for writing-mode and text-orientation tests). Basically that means to use "DejaVu Serif" font, to modify it to use only 128 characters and to modify the "1234" and "5678" characters (by replacing them with respectively "FAIL" and "PASS") so that it can be verified that such custom "DejaVu Serif" font is actually being used in tests. Example given: CSSTest FamilyName font ( csstest-familyname.ttf ) which you can download at/from http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/Test/Fonts/CSSTest/ and it is being used in several font tests in CSS 2.1 test suite. CSSTest Fallback font ( csstest-fallback.ttf ) is another one: "1234" and "5678" characters have been replaced with respectively "PASS" and "FAIL". I also think we could also modify and create a customized mplus-1p-regular.ttf font variant to use only the 100 (or so) characters which may be needed for Japanese glyphs and also modify "1234" and "5678" characters so that they get replaced by "FAIL" and "PASS" respectively. This is also what John Daggett has been saying a few weeks ago.
