    Peter,

    Is there anyway for users to to control which font Windows falls back to
    for particular Unicode ranges?

    For some blocks the fall-back font seems to be the first font installed
    with coverage for that particular range - but in other cases something
    else seems to determine the selection.

    - Chris
