unifont 1:5.1.20080914-1.1ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu
Changelog
unifont (1:5.1.20080914-1.1ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low * Use maintscript support in dh_installdeb rather than writing out dpkg-maintscript-helper commands by hand. We now simply Pre-Depend on a new enough version of dpkg rather than using 'dpkg-maintscript-helper supports' guards, leading to more predictable behaviour on upgrades. -- Colin Watson <email address hidden> Mon, 13 Feb 2012 13:43:00 +0000

- unifont: font with a glyph for each visible Unicode 5.1 Plane 0 character
This package is a convenient way to install both the PCF bitmap
version and the scalable TrueType outline version of GNU Unifont.
It also installs a copy of unifont.hex and related files in
/usr/share/unifont.
.
GNU Unifont was designed to render something besides an empty box
for each visible Unicode character in the Basic Multilingual Plane
(Plane 0). Plane 0 contains most of the world's modern writing scripts.
This font looks best at 12pt.
.
Complex fonts (such as Indic or Semitic scripts, where letters
change shape depending on their position in a word, or such as
Mongolian, which is written vertically) will not render perfectly.
The philosophy behind this font, though, is that anything meaningful
is better than an empty box for a unknown glyph.
- unifont-bin: utilities for manipulating the GNU Unifont
This is a set of Perl scripts, C programs, and FontForge scripts
to manipulate Roman Czyborra's GNU Unifont ".hex" format font
files. The GNU Unifont has a Unicode-compatible font structure.
These utilities allow editing ".hex" fonts with text and
graphical editors, producing final versions of fonts in BDF,
PCF, TrueType SBIT, and TrueType outline formats.
.
To build the TrueType fonts, install the package 'fontforge'.
To build the PCF fonts, use 'bdftopcf', which is in the
'xfonts-utils' package. To obtain the font sources, run
'apt-get source unifont'.
