Arial Unicode MS: "The font Arial Unicode
MS is a full Unicode font, containing all of the approximately 40,000
alphabetical characters, ideographic characters, and symbols defined
in the Unicode 2.1 standard. Because of its considerable size
and the typographic compromises required to make such a font,
Arial Unicode MS should be used only when you can't use multiple fonts
tuned for different writing systems." (Quoted from Microsoft's
Arial Unicode MS Font for Publisher 2000 page.)
HKSCS-2001: reference font and input software
for the Hong Kong Supplementary Character Set. Users of
Western Windows should download the
