This suggests that, in general, documents cannot be rendered
properly if they contain characters requiring scripts other than the
script customarily used for the document's primary language.
For multi-script multi-lingual documents to be unprintable by design
would be so broken that I have a hard time believing this
is how things actually work, particularly since it is so contrary
to my own experience.
