------------------
You may want to look at Fairy, created by the developer of "Microsoft's"
WEFT technology. We're using it for Hawaiian on our site, and very happy
with the results. It supports MS/IE and Navigator on both platforms,
unlike WEFT or Bitstreams fonts.

The developer really bent over backwards to help us with Polynesian
language support, and has been amazingly fast in implementing bug fixes
and new features.
