- psf-unifont: PSF (console) version of GNU Unifont with APL support
This contains a PSF font (Unifont-
APL8x16. psf) as a console frame
buffer font with a subset of Unifont for use with GNU APL and other
APL implementations. The font is installed in "/usr/share/consolefonts/ ".
This PSF font is only suitable for running in console mode, not under the
X Window System.
.
A PSF font allows a maximum of 512 glyphs. The glyph subset in this
font includes ASCII, Latin-1, "oe" and "OE" ligatures for French, the
Euro sign, Unicode Box Drawing, Unicode Block Elements, plus various
glyphs for APL support and some other miscellaneous glyphs. The font
is monospaced, 8 pixels wide by 16 pixels tall.
.
Consider using the TrueType version instead (ttf-unifont) if you are
not running in console mode, because that version is scalable to any
point size and has proper combining character support.

- unifont: font with a glyph for each visible Unicode Plane 0 character
This package is a convenient way to install both the PCF bitmap
version and the scalable TrueType outline version of "Unifont"
(intended for general-purpose use) and "Unifont Sample" (which contains
combining circles to use for illustration purposes). 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.
