Notes

  1. A font targeted to a writing system usually still contains glyphs in the other writing systems.
  2. If a Unicode font (font containing a wide range of Unicode's characters) is targeted to one or a few writing systems, it will not be listed as a "pan-Unicode font" (font intended to globally support a wide range of Unicode's characters)
