Should be a simple questions for someone who knows... How can you tell if a font has an extended character set on Mac OS X?
I have a few fonts that I need to check this on but I am not sure how to do it.

Thanks.

Have you tried FontBook? Not sure, but I believe you can with this built-in utility.

Neil,

Apple's utility is Font Book.

FontBook (no space) is by Lemke software.

Ram�n,

Thanks. But I'm still working on the difference between flammable and inflammable. <g>

Dickon:

Can you be more specific? What is it you want from the font in particular?
