ConTeXt silently drops missing glyphs and I understand the advantage of this behavior over placing a black box (as I believe LaTeX does).
However, I would like a warning in the log file when this occurs, for a chosen font might indeed prove to be in-adapted as incomplete (for a particular document). Perhaps this is already the case, but for what should I search? Is there a tracker to enable?
I have experienced the problem in typesetting a long document in trying a different font without knowing that it "breaks" my document due to missing glyphs. This would be a very important tool for the present the font discussion, for a generated table of glyph overviews is one thing but perhaps more useful would be warnings about missing glyphs in real documents. % shows all kind of errors at the end of a run (relative new feature, dedicated to taco)
\enabledirectives[logs.errors] % quite old feature \enabletrackers[fonts.missing=replace] % or (deleting them) \enabletrackers[fonts.missing] % so: \starttext here we \char 999 go \stoptext % will report errors If you compile the latest luatex you will get a report anyway.
