A bulk approach works. The hyperlink gives full instructions on how to set up the fonts. You can customize it by changing the fonts listed in default.cfl.

For this, do I need to know which fonts support what? Or can I just use bulk approach and do: for all characters, try these fonts in the given order (as the provided in the OP solution-for-FF allows one to do)?
