Does Firefox do this today? - on Linux? How about Firefox 3? I ask this because we have a similar problem, different glyphs for cyrillic itallic letters in macedonian/serbian vs russian/bulgarian (I don't know for other languages). Also, does anyone know of a tool I could use to inspect if the font has language specific glyphs? -- damjan
