    At this time there are no plans to update IBM provided AFP fonts in the z/OS Font Collection to support CCSID 1379.
    Is the scope of required glyph known, which font, Character Set and Code Page requires updates?
    Have the user looked into IBM Worldtype Fonts as an alternative?
    We have asked about the availability of *.ucm file for CCSID 1379 from the Unicode team and are waiting for feedback.
