Moreover, a font isn't a sort of manuscript. Even allowing VN's, it's not
a species associated with writing either. It's a sort of letter-set. I'd
go for {pIqaD buv} if we could stretch the meaning of pIqaD to mean any
alphabet. A {?ghItlhDaq} is a place associated with writing. But
{?ghItlhbuv} would mean... hrm, I don't know, but I don't think it would
necessarily be a font!
