Yes. A good idea since the Wingdings font, included in every copy of
MS Windows for the last 15 years or so, is so ubiquitous (far more so
than Zapf Dingbats or Emoji) these symbols are found all over the

Would you include symbols in Wingdings 2, Wingdings 3, and Webdings as
well as those in the original Wingdings?
