> Actually, it is still the funky "P" thing I mentioned earlier, but I never received much of a response then. I got one digest that seemed to be commenting on someone's answer, but I couldn't find the actual answer. Fortunately, at the time, no one at my company cared about the "P", but it seems I need to re-implement this after all and now it's important again.


I'm not sure if you mean these two postings of mine or not:

http://two.pairlist.net/pipermail/reportlab-users/2013-May/010742.html

In any case it looks like using customized fonts like these can easily
cause hard to find bugs. I'd still prefer using a subset of a widely 
tested font like Code2000 (mentioned in the above postings) even if 
that means using the proper Unicode codes.

BTW, this problem might become worse in the future with services I've 
discovered recently like http://fontello.com and friends...

Dinu

PS: Also, useful subject lines can be, well, pretty useful, at a later
    point of time. ;-)
