Hi, In a previous post, sjoerd mentioned fonts from the "tower of babel project" (russia). http://newstar.rinet.ru/downl.php?lan=en#dict There you can also download fonts, like some palatino and a cjk font. To me it looks quite illegal: the palatino variant has indeed over 2500 glyphs but also contains copyright notices (heidelberg/linotype as well as microsoft). When fonts lack glyphs one normally may make companions, but that;s not the case here: same name, probably same glyphs as in the original. i wonder why they were not yet taken off line. Stealing fonts happens, but here they didn't even bother to disguise the original name and author. Ok, I may be wrong and it may be a donation to the project, but even then it should be mentioned in the copyryright. (Somehow I'm pretty sure that the designer of the Palatino (Hermann Zapf) is not aware or this rip-off.) LInotype now ships the Palatino Nova, but that does not mean that the old one is obsolete and free. Technically you can configure the context unicode handler to take chars from multiple fonts, so my advise is to use another font or a combination of fonts. Maybe it's worth investigating which free fonts contain the glyphs you need.
