No. And specifically, its not 'a match'. Which is why it has a different element name, to indicate that its not a regular glyph. It just provides a glyph that could be used for characters that are not covered. However, other fonts in the font-family list, or the generic font family, or a system fallback font, might have coverage. And even if they do not, the actual 'missing glyph' might be drawn from the svg font, or drawn from any other font n the list (commonly, the last one on the list). ROC> I can't find anything in the spec to confirm this. If so, in what manner? Did you find anything which implies that SVG alters the font matching algorithm? -- Chris Lilley mailto:chris@w3.org Technical Director, Interaction Domain W3C Graphics Activity Lead Co-Chair, W3C Hypertext CG
