The problem of the glyph fallback has been already discussed on the
list, but in the context of Pango.
We have a QT application
https://bitbucket.org/mrudolf/djview-poliqarp
used to display historical texts with a lot of ligatures and some PUA
characters form Medieval Unicode Font Initiative. If the user
incidentally selects an improper font, then fallback creates quite a
mess.
In
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/fontconfig/2012-December/004490.html
there is a statement:
"there are no way to do that in fontconfig so far and a RFE is
in Bugzilla long while."
There is still no way to do it in fontconfig?
Which RFE is referred to in the post?
I would appreciate very much your comments and suggestions.
Best regards
Janusz
