Webdings et.al. ?

Hello,

Am I missing something ? I have an NSTextView that I want to display certain character(s) with using the Webdings font. So I get the font using [NSFont fontWithName:@"Webdings" size:0], this returns and instance of the Webdings font. If I use the debugger to look at the NSFont its description says that it is 'CGS Webdings' ... I set the text of my NSTextView to be some character say 'G' using setString:@"G" , which is a solid box in Webdings if I'm not mistaken, then I set the font of the NSTextView the Webdings NSFont instance for the entire range in this case a single character using setFont:theFont range:theRange, yet when the text is displayed it is the 'G' character and not a Webdings symbol ? what could be going wrong ? Is there a trick to using non standard fonts ?

Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Bob M.
