Controlled Font Substitution

Subject: Controlled Font Substitution

When NSTextView and its friends try to display characters and encounter a character not present in the current font (e.g. THAI CHARACTER MO MA in Monaco 10pt.) then they have to get a corresponding glyph from some other font.

The problem: they sometimes pick up a font which is not suitable. Is there a way (system wide, per user, per application or using code) to control the order of fonts being searched for missing glyphs?

In my case Thai characters get displayed in UPC-Angsana (first font in ~/Library/Fonts), which is a nice font, but rather small (Angsana 10pt. looks rather like 6pt.).


Kind regards,

Gerriet.
