Possibly strange Apple question
Nov. 24th, 2016 08:49 pmIs there a font that includes the logos used on Apple keyboards (the various command keys, speaker symbols, eject, etc.)?
I've tried googling this but I keep ending up with ways of producing symbol characters such as Dingbats and non-english language characters by Apple key combinations, which is not what I want.
I ask because I've had worn out and missing keys a few times, and while finding a key that fits in the right place is usually possible, painting on the logo is a total pain. But I have a label printer and black and white (on transparent background) label tapes, so it should be possible to label them instead.

Unicode #2318 for the command key.
The apple logo is tricksy many Mac font's apparently ( http://hea-www.harvard.edu/~fine/OSX/unicode_apple_logo.html ) have it at #F8FF but that is in the private use area - so specific to individual fonts or OSs.
The apple symbol is though apparently in "Baskerville old face" ( source: http://www.trickyways.com/2015/03/type-apple-logo-symbol-windows/ )
