Sometimes you needa font that will display obscure characters. Displaying them beautifully is of secondary interest. Here are some fonts that display an unusually wide selection of characters.

You can check out an installed font with FontShower or Unicode to see more precisely which glyphs it supports and what they look like. If you don’t own the font yet, you can copy/paste the obscure characters from a page like the htmlentities page into the sample text field of the font vendor’s web page.
You can download FreeSerif from FontSpace. Lucida Sans and Lucida Sans Unicode come bundled with Java. Calibri, MS PGothic, MSUIgothic come with Windows.
