| It sounds like the footnote markers are using actual superscript digit characters rather than some sort of superscript mark-up (like <sup> in HTML). In that case, it'll need a font that includes the glyphs for all the superscript digit characters. It's not that surprising that it works for 1 2 and 3 because those characters are included in the ISO-8859-1 character set and there are glyphs for them in pretty much every TrueType / OpenType font. The other superscript digits aren't; they aren't even in WGL4, so you'll probably find that most fonts don't have glyph for them.You can see if you have any fonts with these glyphs on a Windows machine by opening the Character Map accessories and selecting Group by: Unicode Subrange and picking Super/Subscript from the Group By popup window, then scrolling through the available fonts (though irritatingly, it'll reset the range settings when it hits a font that's not Unicode encoded, grr!).On this computer, the only fonts with glyphs for superscript 4-9 are:* The Windows Vista "C"-fonts: Calibri, Cambria, Candara, Consolas, Constantia, Corbel.* Arial Unicode (which contains glyphs for all codepoints in Unicode 2.1, so it's huge -- and not desperately pretty!)* Lucida Sans Unicode* MS Mincho (Primarily a Japanese font)* Palatino Linotype |
