You can "save as" a page, and look at the code offline - meaning that the "code" comes across, even on characters that don't "print to screen." If the netscape - or any other browser - has a font that knows how to "draw" the characters, then they will see them. It's up to the browser that's trying to look at it.
I haven't confirmed that all of the Special G1 characters have unique character numbers, since my "ANSI Analyser" is only good up to decimal 255; but ones I've looked at using rather tedious other methods do appear to.
It's also uncertain whether (or when) Windows considers the Special Gs an included subset of a font, or if you have to select them separately. I'm working on that (for other uses too) but not making much progress.
Only way to know for sure is to try it, I guess. I can't help, 'cause I don't use netscape, and with the number of different "flavors" available, it's hard to know what "random feedback" really tells you.
