Well, funny enough, when I ran into this post I was also reading a conlang webpage which uses Dynamic Fonts (find it at: http://www.cs.umd.edu/~habash/delason/, I've not read much of it but the script is nice looking). Call that synchronicity... BTW, I tried the link you give and it didn't work to me: where the Georgian should appear I see only hollow rectangles, and when I tried to click on the link about that problem it crashed my computer. Still I am able to read that conlang site which also uses Dynamic Fonts so I don't understand what was the problem... Christophe. http://rainbow.conlang.free.fr
