Pretty funny to see "won't fix" as a resolution for a bug without any explanation given.
I found a workaround for my use case by creating a TMP text asset and setting it to static (not dynamic) so that the characterTable would be generated beforehand. Then I compared the chars in characterTable against my own list of valid characters to figure out if they were valid.
But there is clearly an actual bug here, and this "resolution" means that Font.HasCharacter is pretty much useless. Hopefully this comes up on google search so that other people won't waste time troubleshooting a non-functional method.

Huh? I just found out about this, and do not understand why this is marked as won't fix? It limits our Chinese players quite significantly. We have to do some validation, if an entered char is supported to be displayed, with this broken it filters out many valid characters.
