I don't know if it's possible to use Unicode fonts in the Unix version of
Nav 4.X. I'll try to find out.

Have you played with the documentFonts.charset table in Netscape.ad? That's
the table that maps XLFD names to IANA charset names. The main IANA charset
name that we use for Unicode is "ISO-10646-UCS-2". (We support other aliases
as well.) I haven't tried this myself for Unicode fonts.
