Hi, I'm using ConTeXt to create a small table of unicode characters. Below is my current test. The codes are: U+2019 is a single quotation mark U+2610 should be a ballot box U+226b should be a "much greater than" (>>) U+2115 should be the N as used to represent the natural numbers I get 2019 right, 2610 becomes a blank, 226b becomes just a 'b' and 2115 is also a blank. The choosen font is just one I selected (randomly) for testing. Is there a font I could select that would give me a wide set of unicode characters? Actually: is the choice of font the reason for the missing characters, or I'm just doing something wrong?

Is there a font I could select that would give me a wide set of unicode characters? ArialUnicode or see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arial_Unicode_MS -- luigi
