Just to add my 2 cents worth to this discussion. EB Garamond does not contain the requisite glyphs as Fontforge shows exactly 9 glyphs (27E8, 27E9, 27EA, 27EB, 2A74, 2A75, 2A76, 2B45 and 2B46) in the 27C0-2BFF range though those characters don't display in the ebook. OTOH, I switch to a nameless Microsoft font or the freeware Code2000 font and the page displays rather nicely. See attached image.

The fault in our fonts... (may John Green forgive me).

Edit: Attached a zipped copy of code2000.ttf to the message. A bit of an ugly font but it does display almost the entire glyph set.

Edit2: Checked and the glyphs in code2000 only work up to 2B54 in the miscellaneous symbols and arrows area but then it was designed in 1998 with Unicode v2.x being the current version.
