    It's a significant bug. I reported it to the appropriate folks. Thanks for pointing out this problem.

    Ramón,

    As these are typical standard Western glyphs, it does seem a bit absurd that the online display defaults as it does. It certainly does not help sell fonts.

    If Thomas and Dov are listening, maybe they can use their influence.

    See the attached for a look at how myfonts.com easily and elegantly resolves the same request.
