Hi Jen,

According to the source in fo/src/com/idiominc/ws/opentopic/fo/i18n,
the default is empty. That means that characters not in the i18n
lists (such as ASCII) belong to no Alphabet. No-Alphabet characters
just adopt the properties of the text immediately preceding them.

A good reference for Unicode character ranges is Alan Wood's "Unicode character ranges and the Unicode fonts that support them" - ...

There are attempts to develop full Unicode fonts: e.g., http://www.code2000.net/ Do you mean plane 1 for "default" range? My understanding is that you can...

Hi all, I guess I wasn't really clear about my original question. It isn't the fonts so much that I was interested in, but rather where in the FO plugin it...

Hi Jen, ... There is no "default". XSL-FO has no requirement about "scripts" (what you are calling "unicode set"). It will happily use one font for a...

... Er, no. Plane 0, usually called the BMP (Basic Multilingual Plane) is fully accessible by all methods. The "astral" planes are 1 - 16, where only 1 (SMP,...
