This is from Jacob Poon's report of 2007-10,
https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106274

These all report that something was wrong with an individual character.

The first group, I fixed straightaway.

The second group appears already to have been fixed, prior to my reading of the report.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Low line (U+005F) in italic fonts are not slanted.

Latin Capital Letter Thorn (U+00DE) has uneven distance bewteen top and bottom of vertical bar with respect to the ring, reducing legibility of the glyph.

Capital Letter NJ (U+01CA) in FreeMono are incorrectly connected.
NOTE: I made new glyphs, with the two disconnected
Latin small letter squat (U+285) in BoldOblique font is shorter than other fonts in the same family.

Bold and oblique versions of Latin small letter turned k (U+29E) are incorrectly moved up from the baseline. The bug does not exist in other font families.

Cyrillic letters semisoft sign (U+48C-48D) in bold fonts ... In addition, there should be no serif at the top of the glyph.

Cyrillic letters abkhasian ha (U+4A8-4A9) in all font variants look like Latin letter C instead of C with curl.
NOTE: fixed in Mono; added to Oblique
Latin capital letter D with cedilla (U+1E10) in bold and italic variants do not have cedilla aligned to the middle of the glyph.

Latin small letter d with cedilla (U+1E11) does not have cedilla connected to the bottom of the circle of the glyph. The bug does not exist in other variants of the font.

Superscript Latin small letter i (U+2071) in Oblique font is blank instead of showing actual glyph. The bug does not exist in other font families.

Care of (U+2105) in the oblique font only shows Latin small letter c instead of actual glyph.

Cada una (U+2106) in the oblique font misses Latin small letter e. The bug does not exist in other font families.

L B bar symbol (U+2114) does not have a bar crossing between letters.

Top square bracket (U+23B4) shows only blank space rather than a glyph. The bug does not exist in other font families.
NOTE: deleted
Cross of Jerusalem (U+2629) has 5 crosses instead of 1. The bug does not exist in other font families.

Latin small ligatures (U+FB00-FB06) in all font variants do not have connected letters within each glyph, so they are not real ligatures.
NOTE: I conjoined them

----------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: I don't see these problems in the latest CVS.

Latin small letter n preceded by apostrophe (U+149) on all irregular variants of FreeMono do not contain preceding apostrophe.

Latin small letter dotless j with stroke and hook (U+284) in bold fonts has 2 horizontal strokes instead of just 1.

Latin small letter ts digraph (U+02A6) only has letter t, not s. The bug does not exist in other font families.

Modifier letter right half ring (U+2BE), Modifier letter left half ring (U+2BF) in Oblique font have inner arcs drawn in polygon lines instead of real curves. The bug does not exist in other font variants.

Cyrillic letters semisoft sign (U+48C-48D) in bold fonts do not have horizontal stroke. The bug does not exist in other font families. ...

Latin small letter r with dot below and macron (U+1E5D) of the bold and italic fonts have diacritical mark shifted to the right of the letter.

Latin letters u with tilde and acute (U+1E78-1E79) in bold font have acute incorrectly shifted to the right of the letter.

Latin letters A with breve and hook above (eg: U+1EB2-1EB3) have breves and hooks incorrectly overlapped.

Some Latin letters with horn and other accent (U+1EDA-1EEF) in Medium and Oblique fonts incorrectly have the other accents aligned to horns instead of the middle of the respective letters, resulting in wider glyphs than they should be.

Inverted ohm sign (U+2127) is incorrectly placed outside the font grid. The bug does not exist in other font variants.

There are 2 glyphs assigned to Private Use Area (U+E000-F8FF) in each font variant, which do not serve any useful purposes. These characters should be unassigned, and the source glyphs should be removed if they are not used by other assigned characters in any way.

Latin small ligature st (U+FB06) does not have letter s. The bug does not exist in other font families.

The font stored 2 copies of 'uni1FEE' glyphs, even though the second copy was never used. The 2nd copy should be removed.
