Default Times New Roman Unicode


Is there a Times New Roman font with full unicode support? I need to enter
tranliterated Arabic and the regular TNR font has only the macrons (dash
above), ayn and hamza. It does not have the characters with dots beneath t,
s, h, z and d.

When I enter the Unicode code point for these characters (e.g. 1e63 for s
with dot below) it shifts to Tahoma, which looks nothing like TNR.

Hi Janlabe,

You may want to check with the folks in the
Word international features newsgroup (link below)
It depends a bit on what your definition of
'full Unicode support' would be to some extent
as there are different Unicode releases and
you don't mention the version of Word you're using
or the version of the Font. The 2003 version
includes Arabic support.

"Times New Roman contains 1674 glyphs and 867 standard kern pairs"
