Dear i18n folks in Unicode.org

Do we know ANY application on ANY platform use the Unicode range or code
rage field in the TrueType OS/2 table to support different langeuags ?

Does Microsoft applications depend on that ?

Deborah:
How about MacOS and Mac OS Apps

Any Linux application use that ?

Ken:
Do you know any Adobe software depend on that?

I heard a rumer said that those bits are usually unset and keep as 0.
But I found that some of the font are set if I use ttfdump to look at them.

Thanks
