You need a font that has glyphs for all unicode characters (at least the ones you use). See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicode_font for a start. I don't know enough about Windows to give you a name. Anyone? -- Alain. P/S: and this has not much to do with python, which will happily send out any unicode char, and cannot know which ones your terminal/whatever will be able to display -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
