Not entirely correct...
They offer a font which also is 100% compatible
for Swedish and AFAIK also Finnish. Thus it
works for some Nordic languages, but not for
all!

Does such exist? AFAIK Dutch/Flemmish only uses
the standard 26 letter alfabet (I guess Harry
Fluks can confirm this).

I can see that.

These are complete diffirent alfabets and
is *not* a topic here.

Once again - mentioning Greece and Russia here
is *not* correct - this is a discussion about
the LATIN alfabet only.

IMO as many special charcters *within* the LATIN
alfabet as possible should be included.

And let me say the following to you all:
As long ago as in the 1980's I made my own
fonts for my Commodore 64. By then I always
included the A, O and U with dots over them.
And I am pretty sure that if Danish Donaldist
Society will ever create it's own font, that
one will include the A, O and U with dots over
them as well.

So please let us all be constructive here.

Sigvald :-)
