No, that would mean the whole world used the same fonnt for all characters (as unicode aims to be the character encoding for the world, or universe, actually). Many fonts these days are "big" and have a lot more glyphs than the traditional latin 1 or Adobe encodings. Lucida sans uniocde comes with Nt/w2000 and has most of unicode 2 (but as a sans serif font isn't always what you want). > 2.

The big problem with for example mathml on mozilla is how to install the needed fonts on platforms other than windows, where standard the location of the fonts for a unix x server might not be available to the person installing the client. If you can asume windows then things are simpler, not because windows is necessarily better at this, just that it cuts out some of the variation. > - is the only gurantee to include it in the install? often licences (even for free fonts) prevent that.
