Subject: How to define fallback font for symbols
Date: Fri, 17 Jun 2011 09:43:42 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <BANLkTinuSpg2Ce=kwEvAhjcH=v=gdH1J-g@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi all,

Is it possible to set a fallback font from which glyphs will be taken
if the current font doesn't have it? For example, I'd want to use
fancy miscellaneous symbols from the Symbola font using their unicode
codepoint without any extra font-changing command (and obviously, I
don't want to use Symbola for the rest of the text).

Alternatively, setting different fonts for different unicode blocks
would also do the trick.

Vianney
