Brian,

Is there a way to dump all the character codes that will generate all the
glyphs in a specific font? The character palette's "insert with font"
capability seems to be able to do this. I haven't been able to get
NSGlyphInfo to work. What is the base string supposed to contain?
As Scott commented, there is no one-to-one glyph/character mapping.
Typically a font has more glyphs than the number of characters it supports.

Yes

f-i was a bad sample ;). Look at the "pp" or "Mrs" or even "Zapfino" ligature of the Zapfino font. You may test it with TextEdit.

In the Zapfino font, there's even several glyphs for the same character (for instance there's 4 different P letters).
