The Katica 12 fonts contain blank glyphs for Latin-1 codepoints (such as ©). They should probably be removed entirely so the replacement character, "?", is drawn instead of just whitespace. For comparison, some random Cyrillic codepoint gets replaced with "?", because there is no glyph available (see image below).

Here, the difference is visible in Font Editor:

The white but blank characters from U+0080 onwards should probably be removed. Maybe there are more fonts affected, but the Katica 10 fonts, for example, only contain the glyphs that are actually drawn, which means everything else gets correctly replaced by "?".
