Arrows1 font modified in Fontlab

It appears that this font is quite old, has some metrics issues, and it is not
a Unicode font. 

Opened it in Fontlab and noticed an odd setting: Safe bottom = -40000
My guess is that is a missing setting, not the actual setting.
So I let Fontlab determine what it thought it should be: -93
Renamed and exported the font.
Fontlab converted it to OpenType and Unicode.

Installed the modified font - and it does not have the issue.

Fontlab has moved some things around, but it all appears to be there.
And the insert Special Characters seems to work properly.
Did not test thoroughly.

You can install both fonts as this one has been renamed to Arrows1Fontlab.

So to summarize - old font, not unicode, with some odd metrics issues.
