If the character-to-glyph mapping of a writing system is trivial enough for it to be feasible to use @font-face and to commandeer e.g. the Latin-1 Supplement (whether encoded in UTF-8 or windows-1252) or to use the PUA (in UTF-8), then it is feasible to use the right code points with @font-face without the browser having special support for those code points (yes, even if the right code points are on astral planes). -- Henri Sivonen hsivonen@hsivonen.fi https://hsivonen.fi/
