default arial on windows xp does not have the stars characters. but
windows vista/7 come with "arial unicode ms" which is the only windows
font that has them.
i'm not sure if ms office will install this font, but we can't really
depend on that.
one of the reasons i've suggested to include an "free" font with
subsurface, or perhaps try alternatives.
