Purpose
[ਸੋਧੋ]This template was created to allow easy switching to unicode fonts. It should only be used in cases where characters do otherwise not render correctly on some browsers, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer.
The fonts selected are designed to maximize the probability to render uncommon Unicode characters correctly. However, different fonts cover different Unicode ranges. It is probably mostly useful for various Unicode symbols. Do not use it for the following:
- For strings in the International Phonetic Alphabet, use {{IPA}}.
- for various non-Latin scripts, use {{lang}} if possible, or {{script}} otherwise.
- for MUFI encoding (non-Unicode), use {{mufi}}.
