[daisy] Oriental Characters

[Karel Vervaeke]

Daisy supports unicode throughout the application.
For PDF rendering we depend on Apache FOP.  When FOP does not know how
to render a character, it writes out a #.  FOP has some documentation
about fonts:

http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/0.94/fonts.html

If you end up configuring daisy/fop so that it supports
Arabic/Hebrew/Other languages better, please write your findings
in the Daisy documentation.

Regards,
Karel
