Dean, the suggestion has been that people want to or are encoding PH
text using the Hebrew block of Unicode and simply displaying with a font
that uses PH glyphs for those characters. The burden of proof for this
is on those making the suggestion. Michael has simply said he has never
seen such a font. If you want to support the claim, you cannot simply
question how thoroughly Michael has searched -- it's not his
responsibility. If you know of such fonts, then please identify them.
