unexpected behavior with FXFontSelector

I'm seeing something strange with FXFontSelector (Fox v1.7.50)

 

I've added Unicode for a subscript 2 (\\u2082 <file://u2082> ) to
the preview text.

 

I select Arial and it displays fine. Back in my program the
subscript 2 shows as an empty box indicating that the character
does not exist.

 

My program should be correct since it displays the subscript 2
fine with other fonts (like Segoe UI).

 

I've also check with MS Word that the subscript 2 does not exist
in the Arial.

 

My question is how/why does it display fine in the preview in
FXFontSelector even though it does not exist in Arial? It even
looks like the Arial font. I see the same with other fonts not
just Arial.

 

 

Kind regards,
