Question for the LaTeX font experts:

Is there a *single* font family that contains enough glyphs to cover
Latin scrpts plus European diacritics and Greek and Cyrillic and can
be used with DVI output?

Background:

- The Word-export strategy I am exploring in some depth goes through
tex4ht, which relies on DVI. Although it is compatible with xelatex
and hence (I think)  unicode input file, it is not compatible with the
fontspec package. Hence only LaTeX fonts can be used.

- I am testing the export of a simple multi-language file that
includes bits in Greek polytonic and Russian (plus other European
languages) and I am trying to find a single font covering all of the
above, so we can get the relevant characters over into Word/ODT(where
they may be changed at will).

- I thought Linux Libertine could fit the bill, as it is known to have
a very wide coverage. Unfortunately it could not get it to play nice
with tex4ht.
