Description Jean-François Colson 2014-01-13 06:09:39 UTC
Hello

I’ve noticed an important mistake in DejaVu Sans.
I think it could be easily corrected in a few seconds by anybody who have the source files and the right tools.

Following http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U1D300.pdf ,
the glyph for U+1D301 DIGRAM FOR HEAVENLY EARTH should have a single line above and three dashes below.
In DejaVu Sans, it has two dashes above and three dashes below.

Following http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U1D300.pdf ,
the glyph for U+1D302 DIGRAM FOR HUMAN EARTH should have two dashes above and three dashes below.
In DejaVu Sans, it has three dashes above and a single line below.

Following http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U1D300.pdf ,
the glyph for U+1D303 DIGRAM FOR EARTHLY HEAVEN should have three dashes above and a single line below.
In DejaVu Sans, it has a single line above and three dashes below.

To correct this, you should:
– copy the glyph of U+1D303 to U+1D301,
– copy the glyph of U+1D301 to U+1D302,
– copy the glyph of U+1D302 to U+1D303.

Thanks for the hard work.

I forgot to mention that those are the characters 𝌁, 𝌂 and 𝌃.

Thanks for reporting! I'll fix the glyphs as soon as possible.
