How to set fonts for character sets
Firefox is recommended, as it often has the needed character sets configured properly.
Firefox
For FF4, you set fonts for individual languages at Tools / Options / Content / Advanced
Make sure your default encoding is Unicode (UTF-8), and add other character sets as needed.
Still having problems? This is a bit old, but these tips helpful: http://www.alanwood.net/unicode/firefox.html
IE
Fonts are set at Tools / Internet Options / General / Fonts
Chrome, Safari
Chrome and Safari do not currently have a way of setting fonts individually by character range and are not recommended for this site.
