this is a comment, not an answer. Those boxes are an indication that there is a missing or unrecognized unicode font, or a misconfigured application font preference. One of the things I would love to see is an application where you could input the 0c66 and output what font would be needed, possibly what debian package would be needed. This should be for any of the non-latin fonts in Debian. There was a recent tibetan font added to Debian, but exactly how would I know that it is correctly installed , what application I can use it with and how to configure that application.
Maybe not exactly what you wanted, but GNOME has a good character map
(package gucharmap) where you can search for say "0c66" and see
information about that character. It wont tell you what font package
to install, but often it gives you enough info to search for it with
apt-cache search.
In gucharmap I searched for 0c66 and this is what I got in the character details.
U+0C66 TELUGU DIGIT ZERO
General Character Properties
Unicode category: Number, Decimal Digit
Various Useful Representations
UTF-8: 0xE0 0xB1 0xA6 Octal escaped UTF-8: \340\261\246 Decimal entity reference: ౦
The telugu characters in gucharmap are displayed properly. Does this mean that all the necessary fonts are installed? I dont know what other packages to install as I have already installed ttf-telugu-fonts package.
thanks raju
