#7 Re: 0x25CC and Diwali Posted by Anonymous (66.117.xx.xx) on Wed 8 Nov 2006 at 22:07 Your problem is because of the 0CBF. It isn't in any of the fonts available for Debian. The character you asked about, the 25CC, should display just fine: ◌. It's used when drawing Unicode combining characters to show how they combine, but it isn't actually used in writing for a language. It probably shouldn't have been on the Wikipedia page. Anyway, you don't have the combining character in your fonts so you don't get the dotted circle either. What you pasted should look just as the 0CBF appears in the Unicode page tables: http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0C80.pdf You can get the 0CBF from http://code2000.net/code2000_page.htm or from MS's Arial font, neither of which are Free.
