Why isn't the plus character, '+', valid? Shows up as one of those empty box thingies. Maybe it is just a limitation of the preview? Or does the font really not include a plus character?

Haha, well spotted. Yeah, it seems to maybe be an issue of how Google Fonts sends preview text to the URL, and the “+” conflicts with the general separator. I’ve sent a message to the folks over there, and hopefully they will put it in their backlog to fix.

The font definitely has the “+” symbol, along with many other math & currency glyphs (and many more).

Please check it out (and try the preview/tester) at:
