Vandalism
[edit]I reverted the page. Someone replaced the instances of "dingbat" with "wombat." Read about wombats. Notthe9 00:02, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

Which subset?
[edit]Article claims ITC picked 360 symbols and put them in three sets called 100,200,300. But there is only one table that cannot contain more than 256 symbols shown, and there was only one font on the Apple Laserwriter, and this is what most people call "Zapf Dingbats". Anybody know which subset this is, or if it yet another further subset? Spitzak (talk) 18:08, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
- I'm not too sure what that's referring to, but I don't see how it applies to the mainstream of microcomputer typesetting from 1984 onwards... AnonMoos (talk) 18:31, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
- I think I was confusing "Symbol" with "Zapf Dingbats". However this article shows a single table that cannot contain more than 256 symbols, but the intro talks about a set of 360 symbols, plus "100, 200, 300" subsets. Would like to know how the table relates.Spitzak (talk) 21:19, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
