How to check if a ttf file contains a certain character?

Question

Using the command line, how can I check if a *.ttf file contains a certain character?

I want to know if the font-file Ubuntu-R.ttf contains the U+2007 (FIGURE SPACE) character.

Answer 1

hb-shape /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ubuntu-font-family/Ubuntu-R.ttf `echo -ne "\u2007"`

returns:

[space=0+231]

so the character is defined
