Just checked on that Bach30.ttf and I could get the symbols to show up by
using charset utf8 in global_settings.  Alt 0165 was a clef.  But yeah, it
still doesn't type out that way (believe it was Yen symbol) in the script,
only renders as such.

Can't remember how the one Ken shows up in script, must be similar yet not
need the utf8.
