Fallback Font Support
The Unicode/ISO-10646 standards have added several thousands of new characters. HP-UX
locales support all code points defined in the Unicode 5.0 standard. HP-UX does not provide
glyphs or fonts to cover all the characters defined in the standards. Any attempt by a GUI
application to display text that has characters for which there are no glyphs can have an
unpredictable behavior. This is a common problem in any operating system.
HP-UX11i v3 provides fallback fonts support that helps eliminate this unpredictable behavior of text-
based GUI applications. In the event there are no glyphs, the application will display "?" or "::"
