Hi Doug,

Righ
Doug,
if you think of the TFM slot indices as "glyph indices" rather than
"character codes", then possibly, you can find a 1:1 mapping of all TFM
indices to glyph IDs in the OTF. But not to Unicode codepoints. If your
method of drawing glyphs on screen allows you to address glyph IDs
directly
Thanks for all the responses.
I understand the distinction between Unicode characters (code points) and
glyphs, and that an OpenType font can have glyphs in it that do not
correspond to any Unicode code points. I don't quite get whether or how
those non-Unicode glyphs are subject to being foun

There is nothing in OpenType ab

I don't know really which TeX-related list this should be posted to, so
I'm starting with this one, as it has dealt with OpenType fonts.
This is a TFM <==> OpenType math font question.
By using the "fonttable" package (under TexLive 2010, LaTeX2e), I'm able
to create a PDF that shows the
