Hoi,
The problem is that you do not have the Cree font installed on your computer. When there is a freely licensed font for the script used by the Cree language, it will be possible to include it in the Webfonts functionality. Similarly an input method can be included so that you can type the characters.
Thanks,

PS it is not a bug. It works as designed.

Good day,
Does somebody on that list know where I should go about this issue:

When I open the Cree wikipedia (cr.wikipedia.org) from my work
computer, I only see squares instead of Cree syllabics. First, I would
like to know if that's normal or if that's bug. Second, would there be
a way to fix that from the MediaWiki end since people on computers
like that don't have access to change the settings of their browser or
install new fonts (now I'm from a work computer, but same thing could
happen from a computer in a library for example). I'm using Internet
Explorer 7.

I have posted it there:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Localisation#Font_not_working , but
I'm not sure it's the right place.

I remember reading about the extension WebFonts to avoid those issue,
how can we go to create one for Cree if it doesn't exist? And where
could I find more info about that?

Thanks,
JP Beland alias Amqui
