tex can handle only 256 glyphs per font at once, but pdftex will embed the
whole tt only once [handy for chinese with thousands of glyphs]

You can map symbols to any font. A conveniebnt way si to use
'getglyph{fontname}{\char<number>}' as demonstrated in symb-nav.tex and
symb-eur.tex. When possible, symbols will adapt themselves to the style
(bold or so) and scale.
