Comment 1 Henri Sivonen 2011-04-18 08:05:14 UTC 
The reporter doesn't have sufficient fonts.
Comment 2 Henri Sivonen 2011-04-18 08:06:10 UTC 
Hmm. Maybe a better way to resolve would be making sure all the glyphs are provided using @font-face.

Comment 4 Ian 'Hixie' Hickson 2011-07-08 23:30:06 UTC 
Anyone got a font we can use for that purpose? Something with a free license, ideally, and preferably subsetted to only include the characters in the table (but to include all of them).
