These are not a complete implementation of Unicode. Not all of the bitmap fonts have been cleaned up, and the Roman font is more complete than the italic, bold, black or small caps fonts (and its bitmaps more likely to be clean). The postscript fonts are type 0 fonts and as such are not useable in ATM (as far as I know anyway), they do work on the postscript level 2 lazyprinters I've tested them on (both from HP) and on ghostscript.
They do not contain
They now contain Unicode 3 additions for the blocks I have chosen to implement.
The CaslonRoman font contains (other fonts contain fewer):
Reencoding a Type0 postscript font is not easy. If you wish to do it, here are some hints that may help.
These fonts tend to have one large Type1 font called <fontname>Base
(so CaslonItalic.pfa would contain a font called
CaslonItalicBase), this contains almost all the glyphs in the
font (some of the fonts will get glyphs out of the standard ZapfDingbats
font that almost all postscript printers have preinstalled, since ZapfDingbats
is part of Unicode). You may reencode this type1 just as you normally would
any other type1. The standard postscript names for unicode characters may
be found at
adobe's
site. The afm file will also show what characters names are found in
each font.
Other people's Unicode fonts
The cupola font does not use the standard postscript names for unicode characters (the mapping between unicode code points and glyphs is correct).
