Not exactly. LastResort.dfont (2.4 MB) is in System/Library/Fonts (under
Leopard).
But I was able to put LastResort.ttf (5.1 MB) into Library/Fonts.
Before I added LastResort.ttf, some Sindhi characters were displayed only as
unknown-character icons.
After I added LastResort.ttf, the same Sindhi characters are represented with
their LastResort substitutes.
(Apple's Font Book doesn't recognize either of these fonts.)
