    These are the Windows LOGFONT.lfCharSet values. The character set does not change which characters a cell contains - the text is always Unicode - it is a hint used to pick a substitute face when the named one is not installed, so a workbook authored in a Simplified Chinese locale still resolves to a font with the glyphs it needs.

    Any value in 0-255 is legal; the named ones are the sets Excel writes.
