David,

I will incorporate these changes. Johnny Weaver drew the original glyphs. He asked me to thank you for noticing these issues.

Thanks,

Paul Hardy

U+104C1,104E9 OSAGE CAPITAL/SMALL LETTER NA should have more of a curve.

According to the Unicode proposal, “the bowl of Osage BRA, PA, and PA WITH STROKE is based on the bowl of lower-case b”; U+104B4, U+104C4, and U+104C5 should be changed accordingly. This theoretically applies to their lowercase forms too, but when I tried it, the bowl looked too much like a circle, because of the low resolution.

The ascender of U+104E4 OSAGE SMALL LETTER KA, U+104E5 OSAGE SMALL LETTER EHKA, and U+104E6 OSAGE SMALL LETTER KYA should be like that of ⟨k⟩.

U+104E6 OSAGE SMALL LETTER KYA has an extra pixel at the bottom right of the curl.

Osage uses combinations of diacritics with U+0358 COMBINING DOT ABOVE RIGHT. To avoid overlap, U+0358 should be shifted right. This would also benefit Peh-oe-ji.
