The order of CIDs is in "registry, *ordering*, and supplement". Also it is mentioned in the specs (5092): "A character collection consists of an ordered set of all characters". I think we can rely on that. If there is a CID to glyph index mapping in each file, why doesn't FreeTyope generate a cmap? Thanks, Alexei
