DejavuSerif - Georgian
Thanks, I'll take a look at it during the next days. (btw, 2.27 is already released. We just have a broken wiki the past month so it isn't mentioned on our homepage. So expect it in 2.28 then :-) ) Ben, thank you! Take your time. Regards, Vladimer I've added the new glyphs to DejaVu, available tomorrow in the snapshots http://dejavu.sourceforge.net/snapshots/ (with date 20081120). I took the liberty to move the mtavruli glyphs in the private use area to U+F400. Basically because that's not used as much as the U+E000 so if you are using the direct PUA codepoints the chances to get different letters become smaller. We should have to add some opentype feature as well to do mkhedruli → mtavruli, I'll investigate it once (basically it's choosing between the smallcaps feature and the titling feature, or perhaps a stylistic set). But that's for later. An issue got reported today: U+2D26 in the Nuskhuri block is used, but that code point is reserved and shouldn't be used. So what's the story behind that glyph? U+2D26 probably will have to be moved to the private use area as well.

Hi Ben Good news, exelent :) PUA U+F400 area is good for Mtavruli as any other - this is very good start for some kind of standardization for representing of mkhedruli Mtavruli. Thanks... U+2D26 in the Nuskhuri block can be ommitted. BPG |
