Unifont 15.1.02 Released

Item posted by Paul Hardy <unifoundry> on Fri 22 Sep 2023 04:05:18 AM UTC.

21 September 2023 Unifont 15.1.02 is now available.
This is a minor release.  It adjusts 46 glyphs in the Wen Quan Yi range, and adds Plane 3 ideographs.  This release no longer builds TrueType fonts by default, as announced over the past year.  They have been replaced with their OpenType equivalents.  TrueType fonts can still be built manually by typing "make truetype" in the font directory.

This release also includes a new Hangul Syllables Johab 6/3/1 encoding proposed by Ho-Seok Ee.  New Hangul supporting software for this encoding allows formation of all double-width Hangul syllables, including those with ancient letters that are outside the Unicode Hangul Syllables range.  Details are in the ChangeLog file.
