IE 6.0:
- All boxes
- When I manually set the Code2001 font for the "Latin-based" [sic!]
scripts, I see empty boxes for plane-1 characters, and a special
Code2001 specific, kind of small boxes for the plane-0 PUA ones.
- When I manually set the Code2000 font for the "Latin-based" scripts,
I see empty boxes for Plane-1 characters, and the correct Tengwar
characters for the plane-0 PUA ones.
You may wish to specify the Code2001 font for the plane-1 characters,
and Code2000 for the plane-0 PUA characters, as exenplified in
<http://www.geocities.com/i18nguy/unicode-example-plane1.html>.
Netscape 6.2:
- Plane-1 UTF-8: question marks;
plane-1 NCRs: wrong characters, mostly CHARACTER TIE, DOUBLE HIGH
REVERSED 9 QUOTATION MARK and QUESTION MARK and
other punctuation
plane-0 PUA UTF-8: Correct Tengwar characters
- When I set the fonts for both Unicode and User-defined to Code2001:
no change.
- When I set the fonts for both Unicode and User-defined to Code2000:
no change.
When a character is missing in the selected font, both Netscape 4.7
and 6 search all available fonts for a suitable glyph.
Opera 6.0:
- Plane-1 UTF-8: wrong characters, mostly Braille patterns and
geometric forms;
plane-1 NCRs: Correct Tengwar characters;
plane-0 PUA UTF-8: open boxes
- When I set the fonts for "normal" text to Code2001:
Plane-1 UTF-8: no change
plane-1 NCRs: Correct Tengwar characters;
plane-0 PUA UTF-8: Code2001-specific small boxes
- When I set the fonts for "normal" text to Code2000:
Plane-1 UTF-8: no change
plane-1 NCRs, and plane-0 PUA UTF-8: Correct Tengwar characters;
Best wishes,
