We don't want people to fall back on Latin or ASCII just because they got scared by a warning. That is a good point indeed. I haven’t designed that part yet; it would only be triggered if there are actual declarations of intent in the source. > Declaring the characters involved should work for most scripts, but for Arabic and most Indic scripts at least, that's not enough, because you need the right contextual forms in the font. Right. I was assuming that we put a character into the repertoire if we have all glyphs needed for that character. > Also, for Chinese/Japanese(/Korean), you should know which it is (including the distinction between traditional and simplified Chinese) in order to select the right font. (Getting the wrong font will be legible, but will not look good enough for an RFC.) This is a good point. I’m not sure how to indicate language tag information in RFCXML today. Grüße, Carsten
