Webdings
Pictographic character set
Webdings is a symbol font created by Microsoft in 1997, containing pictographs rather than letters—arrows, hands, geometric shapes, communication icons, and other graphics.
Typing regular characters produces corresponding symbols instead: The letter Q in Webdings displays as a pointing hand.
Webdings and its predecessor Wingdings became standard Windows fonts, useful for adding simple graphics without image files.
