Research direction
Inspect xkcd-script.otf and compare its glyph set with the listed codepoints, noting that the ligature and special-letter items are marked done in #72 and #74. Read about FontForge's buildComposit for the precomposed characters; done means the remaining listed codepoints are present in the font and render correctly.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
The following 69 codepoints exist in the font from @dummy-index font but are absent from xkcd-script.otf (link to where @dummy-index mentions this: https://github.com/ipython/xkcd-font/issues/11#issuecomment-739486365).
