To clarify -- using yum search, I could not find any likely fonts to test. Probably one of the font packs in fedora does cover the codepoints.

Please feel free to post more details regarding required type faces to the SoaS mailing list for discussion. I'll quite happily add extra type faces if someone is prepared to test the variations.

If your quick with the discussion we can even fix this for SoaS v5
