We have decided to generated only base set of characters in cufon fonts generator (less script size). If you want to have more characters you have to generate your own version of font - http://cufon.shoqolate.com/generate/ . Please remember that some fonts doesn't support some sets of characters.

Hi

Does this font support your native language encode?

Hi!

I am also trying to get some special characters in my font. Downloaded capture it and it has my charcaters and I have generated a font wich is supposed to include my special characters (3 norwegian letters)- But I can't seem to activate it.

Try to upload the js font to my template folder with the other fonts and choose it in template manager, but it is not showing.

Are there any other steps to do to get it working? :)

Hi all
please, use page mentioned at the beginning of this thread:
http://cufon.shoqolate.com/generate/
Here you can use your font - from your computer to generate font for website. There is also documentation avaiable on that page.

Perhaps you are making it wrong.
Check the name of the font and write it correctly.
If you want to know the name, open the respective rendering javascript file and you will find it.
For example, i bet that you need to set "Zero Twos" or "Zero_Twos" and not "Zero_Twos_400.font".

I'm preparing a small video tutorials to explain better how cufón fonts works on our templates.

Cheers ;)
