5 - Updated version to 7.0.06.
6 - Added "GZFLAGS = -f -9 -n" to use with gzip in all cases.
7 - Changed ';' to "&&" for multiple shell commands, to fail if
8 a preceding step caused an error.
9 - Use "install -s" instead of "install" on C binaries.
10 * Makefile: regenerated .PHONY: target entries.
12 - Added GRAPHICS declaration, settable to "png" or "bmp" depending
13 on the type of Unifont font pages desired. The default is set
15 - Added bmp: target to create bitmapped graphics (.bmp) images of
17 - Create font/compiled/plane00.html along with
18 font/compiled/plane01.html in "png" and "bmp" targets.
19 * font/plane01/plane01.hex:
20 - Added one glyph inadvertently omitted from Old Italic:
21 U+01031F (Paul Hardy).
22 - Improved animals in U+01F400..U+01F43F (Nils Dagsson Moskopp).
24 U+010350..U+01037F Old Permic (Paul Hardy)
25 U+01F650..U+01F67F Ornamental Dingbats (Paul Hardy)
26 U+01F780..U+01F7FF Geometric Shapes Extended (Paul Hardy)
27 U+01F800..U+01F8FF Supplemental Arrows-C (Paul Hardy)
28 - Emoticons (Paul Hardy)
29 U+01F608: made horns look more like horns
30 * src/: in all Perl scripts, added "or die" for open, close, and
31 print system calls. Made some error messages more descriptive.
32 * src/Makefile: Changed CFLAGS parameter "-O" to explicitly be "-O2".
33 * src/unihexfill: added "set -e" at beginning of bash script.
35 2014-10-17 Paul Hardy <unifoundry@unifoundry.com>
38 * ChangeLog: updated list of Plane 1 scripts added in 7.0.04 entry.
40 - Put plane01.html in font/compiled/ instead of font/.
42 Following Umbreon126's discovery that the ASCII letter 'k' was
43 one pixel too short, Paul Hardy examined the rest of the ASCII
44 alphabet and made these changes:
45 - The letter 'l' was raised by one pixel to make it the same
46 height as all other lower-case letters with ascenders:
47 'b', 'd', 'f', 'h', 'k', and also the same height as 'i' and 'j'.
48 These are all one pixel taller than the upper-case letters.
49 - The horizontal stroke of the letter 't' was lowered by one
50 pixel row to line up with the horizontal stroke in 'f'.
51 This is one pixel shorter than the font's x-height, and
53 - The following scripts were modified where appropriate to
54 include the changes to the letters 'k', 'l', and 't':
55 U+00A0..U+00FF Latin-1 Supplement [no changes]
56 U+0100..U+017F Latin Extended-A
57 U+0180..U+024F Latin Extended-B
58 U+0250..U+02A0 IPA Extensions
59 U+1E00..U+1EFF Latin Extended Additional
60 U+2C60..U+2C7F Latin Extended-C
61 U+3300..U+33FF CJK Compatibility
62 U+A720..U+A7FF Latin Extended-D
63 U+FB00..U+FB4F Alphabetic Presentation Forms
64 U+FF00..U+FFEF Halfwidth and Fullwidth Forms.
66 - Paul Hardy and Nils Dagsson Moskopp completed Miscellaneous
67 Symbols and Pictographs (U+01F300..U+01F5FF).
68 - Nils modified several Plane 1 glyphs from what were in the
69 Unifont-7.0.04 release in these scripts:
70 U+01F300..U+01F5FF Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs
71 U+01F600..U+01F4F Emoticons
72 U+01F680..U+01F6FF and Transport and Map Symbols scripts.
73 * man/Makefile: remove $(MANPAGES) from "install" target.
75 2014-10-11 Paul Hardy <unifoundry@unifoundry.com>
78 * Makefiles: bumped version to 7.0.04.
79 * ChangeLog: added "Version" line at the start of all past entries,
80 since the version number now no longer includes a date as of
81 Version 7.0.01. Fixed spelling of "Umbreon126" in 7.0.02 entry.
82 * doc/: updates to include man/unipagecount.1 changes.
84 - Incorporates all font/plane01 glyphs in generated
85 font/compiled/png/plane01/*.png files, including six-digit
86 hexadecimal glyphs for code points that the Unicode Consortium
87 has not yet assigned to scripts.
88 - Generate font/plane01/all/plane01.html, showing current coverage
89 and what remains to be done in a color-coded table.
90 - Modified distclean target to do a "make clean" in font/plane01.
91 * font/plane00/unifont-base.hex:
92 - Copied U+0070 (lower-case Latin "p") to U+0440 (Cyrillic
93 small letter "er"). Thanks to Umbreon126 for spotting that.
94 - Made the angle in symbol U+26BC (SESQUIQUADRATE) a 45 degree
95 angle, since the symbol is supposed to represent 135 degrees
96 (so 90 + 45 = 135). Thanks to Artur Quaglio for noticing that.
97 The depiction in the Unicode Standard code chart is inaccurate.
98 - Umbreon126 improved the following glyphs:
99 U+0026, U+006B, U+0111, U+0127, U+040F, U+041A, U+0444, U+0452,

101 U+2109, U+2118, U+211C, U+213C, U+213D, U+2169, U+26F6, U+2721,
102 U+A4D2, U+3005, U+3006.
103 * font/plane00/wqy.hex: Umbreon126 improved the following glyphs:
104 U+3116, U+3464, U+35CA, U+4EAE, U+533F, U+53D7, U+5404, U+569F,
105 U+56B9, U+56DE, U+5909, U+5967, U+5E38, U+6238, U+796D, U+7981,
106 U+7A3F, U+7C21, U+7F60, U+840C, U+8276, U+9055, U+907A, U+9089,
108 * font/plane01/Makefile:
109 - Changed name of generated unassigned.hex to plane01-unassigned.hex.
110 - Added a line to create noscript-ranges-hex.txt from
112 - Create font/plane01/all/ directory for generating PNG files
113 when font is compiled.
114 * font/plane01/noscript-ranges.txt: added file that contains
115 start and stop code points of all ranges in Unicode Plane 1
116 where Unicode scripts have not yet been assigned. font/Makefile
117 uses this to generate filler glyphs for those unassigned script
118 ranges; they are not included in the main font, but are included
119 in the PNG graphics files in the font/compiled directory.
120 * font/plane01/plane01-combining.txt: added all Unicode combining
121 code points in the Unicode 7.0 Plane 1 range, not just ones for
122 scripts that Unifont Upper contains.
123 * font/plane01/plane01.hex:
124 - Artur Quaglio added Elbasan and Caucasian Albanian.
125 - Paul Hardy added Sora Sompeng, Chakma, Sharada, Takri, Miao,
126 Arabic Mathematical Alphabetic Supplement, and Transport and
128 - Umbreon126 added Siddham and the script letters in the Mathematical
129 Alphanumeric Symbols block.
130 - Paul Hardy, Nils Dagsson Moskopp, and Umbreon126 added more
131 to the Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs, and Nils improved
133 - Nils Dagsson Moskopp made improvements to some Transport and
135 - Umbreon126 improved U+01F200.
136 * font/plane01/plane01-nonprinting.hex: new file contains the
137 non-printing Unicode Plane 01 glyphs.
138 * font/plane01/unassigned-ranges.txt: fixed a typo; under the
139 Khojki script, 011122 should have been 011212.
140 * man/Makefile: added unifont-viewer.1 to MAN1PAGES variable.
141 * man/unipagecount.1: updated to reflect src/unipagecount.c changes.
143 - Modified comments to include Luis Alejandro González Miranda's
145 - Now supports combining characters for glyphs above Plane 0.
146 - Properly marks fonts with glyphs above Plane 0 as "Unicode"
147 instead of "UnicodeBmp".
148 - Explicitly defines glyphs for ".notdef", ".null", and
149 "nonmarkingreturn" rather than use the Fontforge-supplied defaults.
150 - Calculate exact number of glyphs in the font for BeginChars entry.
151 - Moved pixel-outlining portion to a separate subroutine, "outline".
152 - Add "uni" prefix to StartChar description of code points.
153 * src/unipagecount.c: modified to handle glyphs for any Unicode plane.
154 Now takes a "-Pnn" parameter, where "nn" is the desired plane
155 number (0 through 16, inclusive). The default is Plane 0.
156 The previous version would only take one command-line argument;
157 this version can take multiple arguments.
159 2014-07-01 Paul Hardy <unifoundry@unifoundry.com>
162 * doc/unifont.texi: include unihexfill.texi.
163 * doc/unihexfill.texi: added file.
164 * doc/*.texi: updated all files to cross-reference unihexfill(1).
165 * font/Makefile: removed spurious "DF" element in "for"
166 loop to create "compiled/png/csur/" glyphs.
167 * font/plane00/unifont-base.hex: changed "y" glyph (U+0079)
168 back to previous version. Added modification to the
169 German double s glyph (U+00DF) submitted by Joshua Krämer.
170 * font/plane01/Makefile: corrected a comment line.
171 * man/unihexfill.1: created missing man page. Without that,
172 this version did not conform to Debian Policy. The
173 omission drove this release.
174 * man/*.[15]: updated all man pages to cross-reference unihexfill(1).
176 2014-06-29 Paul Hardy <unifoundry@unifoundry.com>
180 - File now begins with UTF-8 encoded Byte Order Mark (U+FEFF),
181 which is 0xEF, 0xBB, 0xBF. This will alert some less than
182 well behaved text applications to expect non-ASCII UTF-8
183 characters in this file.
184 - Corrected date in previous ChangeLog entry.
185 * font/Makefile: removed an extra "done" in a "for" loop.

196 Inscriptional Parthian, Inscriptional Pahlavi, Psalter Pahlavi,
197 Old Turkic, Rumi Numeral Symbols, Brahmi, Kaithi, Kana Supplement,
198 Shorthand Format Controls, Emoticons, and Alchemical Symbols.
199 He also redrew U+01F195 ("NEW").
200 - Nils Dagsson Moskopp drew more glyphs in the Miscellaneous
201 Symbols and Pictographs block.
202 - Umbreon126 contributed the Pahawh Hmong glyphs. He contributed

204 also redrew U+01F16A ("MC") and U+01F198 ("SOS").
206 2014-06-21 Paul Hardy <unifoundry@unifoundry.com>
209 * Changed version numbering from a date at the end to a two-digit
210 release number for a given Unicode version, where a Unicode version
211 consists of a major number and a minor number. So this version is
212 Unifont 7.0.01, because it is the first revision to implement the
213 Unifont 7.0 glyphs. Richard Stallman made this request.
214 * INSTALL: changed "hexsrc" to "plane00" to refer to the new
217 - Changed "hexsrc" to "plane00" to refer to the new directory name.
218 - Added mention of Andrew Miller writing unifont-viewer.

225 incorrectly named "Hex File Format", which is the name of the
227 - Added new section on "Dynamically Viewing a Unifont File" to
228 describe using the unifont-viewer Perl utility.
229 - Added unifont-viewer man page sub-section to Reference section.
230 * doc/unifontpic.texi: changed "hexsrc" to "plane00" to refer to
231 the new directory name.

233 the new directory name.
235 - Added font/plane0[1-F]csur/*.hex in hex: target to sort input
236 for building fonts containing CSUR glyphs above Plane 0.
237 - Added all combining character code points in uppercsurttf target.
238 - Added creation of unifont_upper_sample-$(VERSION).hex. This
239 involved the creation of combining and nonprinting files in

241 unifont_upper_sample-$(VERSION).bdf and
242 the SBIT font unifont_upper_sample-$(VERSION).ttf.
243 - Added generation of Supplemental Multilingual Plane glyphs
244 to "font/compiled/bmp/" directory.
245 - Renamed "font/compiled/bmp/uni??.bmp" to
246 "font/compiled/bmp/uni00??.bmp" to appear before SMP bitmap files.

249 Graphics format (with combining circles where appropriate),
250 in subdirectories "plane00", "plane01", "plane0E", and "csur".
251 - clean target now also removes "$(COMPILED_DIR)/*.sfd.gz".
252 * font/index.html: added table for Supplemental Multilingual Plane.
253 * font/plane00: Added the 327 new glyphs introduced to Plane 0 in
254 Unicode 7.0. This involved adding glyphs to unifont-base.hex,

256 newly-defined glyphs from unassigned.hex.
257 * font/plane00/README: changed "hexsrc" to "plane00" to refer to
258 the new directory name.
259 * font/plane00/unifont-base.hex:
260 - Redrew U+0D00 and U+2702.
261 - Redrew Halfwidth Katakana Variants, U+FF65 through U+FF9F, because
262 the original glyphs were too tall compared to the rest of Unifont.
263 - Using new versions of U+2619 (the "Aldus leaf"), U+2622,
264 and U+26DF that Nils Moskopp submitted.
265 * font/plane00csur/csur.hex: removed U+EFFF as a Copyleft symbol, as
266 it is not part of the ConScript Unicode Registry.

271 Numbers, Imperial Aramaic, Lydian, Old South Arabian, Old North
272 Arabian, and Enclosed Ideographic Supplement (modeled after glyphs
273 in Wen Quan Yi). Also added new glyphs to complete Phoenician.
274 Also added glyphs to complete the 7.0 additions for Ancient Greek
275 Numbers, Ancient Symbols, and Old Italic.

293 * src/unigencircles.c: extended to cover the entire Unicode range.
294 * src/unihexfill: new program to pad a script with glyphs that are
295 four or six digits. Among other uses, this will allow Debian

310 - Updated date for new release.
311 - Added Qianqian Fang's name to COPYRIGHT strings, for his glyph
312 contributions in "font/plane00/wqy.hex".
313 * hangul/hangul-generation.html: removed references to three footer
314 "<img>" links that pointed to external websites. Those external
315 icons were saved locally when the original web page
316 http://unifoundry.com/hangul/hangul-generation.html was saved in
317 the "hangul/" directory. That web page is the most comprehensive
318 documentation of the effort to create the Hangul Syllables block
320 * hangul/hangul-generation_files: removed three external icon files
321 ("valid-html401.png", "vccs.gif", and "w3c_ab.gif") that were saved
322 locally when http://unifoundry.com/hangul/hangul-generation.html
324 * src/unibmp2hex.c: increased size of "wide" array to be 0x200000,
325 to cover the entire range of Unicode.

333 "font/hexsrc" has been renamed to "font/plane00".
334 * doc/: regenerated unifont.txt, unifont.info, and unifont.pdf files
335 after addition of doc/hexkinya.texi.
336 * doc/Makefile (docprep): added new target to remove the files
337 created by "make doc", in preparation for running "make doc" again.
338 * doc/hexkinya.texi: added Texinfo file for hexkinya Perl script.
339 * doc/unifont.texi: updated file to reflect "font/hexsrc" being
340 renamed to "font/plane00" and made other changes to reflect
341 support beyond the Unicode Basic Multilingual Plane.
343 - Added Andrew Miller's name to COPYRIGHT string.
344 - Add unifont_upper font files for Plane 1 through Plane 14 glyphs.
345 - Add unifont_upper_csur font files for Plane 1 through Plane 15
346 glyphs (currently there are no glyphs for Plane 16, the highest
347 plane that the Unicode Standard allows).
348 - Create Unifont-APL8x16.psf.gz console font file, to support
349 running GNU APL and other APL implementations in console mode.
350 This font is a 512 glyph subset of Unifont.
351 * font/Makefile (bigpic): construct giant glyph picture using
352 font/plane00/*.hex rather than font/compiled/unifont_sample*.hex,
353 because the latter doesn't contain glyphs for U+FFFE or U+FFFF
354 (removed to appease MS Windows).
355 * font/Makefile (hex): added egrep -v "^FFF[EF]" to make sure
356 U+FFFE and U+FFFF are removed from font, for Windows XP.
357 * font/plane00: new name of previous "font/hexsrc" directory, now
358 that this package contains multiple Unicode planes.
359 * font/plane00/README: updated to mention new "omit.hex" file.
360 * font/plane00/bmp-combining.txt: formerly "font/ttfsrc/combining.txt".
361 * font/plane00/nonprinting.hex: removed U+FFFE and U+FFFF to
362 appease MS Windows XP (see font/plane00/omit.hex entry below).
363 * font/plane00/omit.hex: consists of U+FFFE and U+FFFF, for the
364 sake of MS Windows XP.
365 * font/plane00/unifont-base.hex: Further tweaks to APL glyphs.
367 - Created ConScript Unicode Registry directory, for glyphs in Michael
368 Everson's PUA mapping ("http://www.evertype.com/standards/csur/").
369 - Added contributions of Wojciech Stryjewski: Tengwar and Klingon.
370 - Added contributions of Andrew Miller: Kinya (partial), aUI,
371 Gargoyle, Ewellic, Unifon, Solresol, Visible Speech, and Monofon.
372 - Added contributions of Paul Hardy: Cirth and Aiha.
373 * font/plane01: created directory for Unicode Plane 1 glyphs.
374 - Added glyphs contributed by Roman Czyborra and Andrew Miller:
376 - Added glyphs contributed by Andrew Miller: Ancient Symbols,
377 Lycian, Carian, Ugaritic, Old Persian, Musical Symbols,
378 Tai Xuan Jing Symbols, Counting Rod Numerals, Mathematical
379 Alphanumeric Symbols (partial), Mahjong Tiles, Domino Tiles,
380 Playing Cards, Enclosed Alphanumeric Supplement, and Miscellaneous
381 Symbols and Pictographs (partial).
382 - Added glyphs contributed by Paul Hardy: Linear B Syllabary,
383 Linear B Ideograms, Aegean Numbers, Ancient Greek Numbers,
384 Gothic, Deseret, Shavian, Osmanya, Cypriot Syllabary, Phoenician,

387 * font/plane0E: added scripts contributed by Andrew Miller: Tags and
388 Variation Selectors Supplement.
389 * font/plane0Fcsur: added glyphs from Michael Everson's ConScript
390 Unicode Registry (CSUR) contriubted by Andrew Miller: Kinya Syllables.
391 * font/psf: added directory with files to build new PSF font version,
392 to allow APL use under GNU/Linux in console mode.
393 * font/ttfsrc: simplified directory to only contain a Makefile;
394 other files were moved to "font/plane00/" as a precursor to allow
395 parallel building of multiple fonts.
396 * font/ttfsrc/Makefile:
397 - Updated VERSION date.
398 - Added Andrew Miller's name to COPYRIGHT string.
399 * hangul/README: changed mention of "font/hexsrc" to new location
401 * man/hexkinya.1: added man page for Andrew Miller's hexkinya Perl
402 script, also cross-referenced in all other man pages.
403 * src/hexkinya: new script by Andrew Miller to generate Kinya Private
404 Use Area glyphs in Plane 15, saved under "font/plane0Fcsur/".
405 * src/unibmp2hex.c: added forced double width for appropriate
406 Plane 1 (Supplemental Multilingual Plane) scripts now that
407 this package extends beyond the Basic Multilingual Plane.
408 * src/unipagecount.c: corrected license from GPL3+ to GPL2+.
410 2013-12-21 Paul Hardy <unifoundry@unifoundry.com>
412 * Version: 6.3.20131221.
413 * ChangeLog: corrected date on last entry from 12-27 to 12-17.
414 * Makefiles: updated date for new release.
415 * font/hexsrc/unifont-base.hex: Modified glyphs to appear better
416 in APL: U+22F8, U+233B, U+233E, U+235B, and U+2364.
417 * font/ttfsrc/Makefile: commented out SetFontNames function calls
418 in fontforge. Not all applications were interpreting that data
419 correctly. For example, in LibreOffice, it listed the font as
420 the foundry name ("GNU") rather than the foundry name plus the
421 font name ("GNU Unifont") or just the font name. That is a bug
422 in LibreOffice, so if such things are fixed in the future then
423 these calls can be re-introduced.
425 - Rearranged some properties (cosmetic change).
426 - Changed default font name from "unifont" to "Unifont".
427 * src/unigencircles.c: changed subscript from MAXSTRING to
428 MAXSTRING-1 at line 61.
430 2013-12-17 Paul Hardy <unifoundry@unifoundry.com>
432 * Version: 6.3.20131217.
433 * doc/Makefile: removed redirection of texi2pdf output.

436 - Don't modify PCF fonts with FontForge, which alters them
437 so grub-mkfont can't read them.
438 - In font/compiled, insert $(VERSION) into unifont.sfd name.
439 * font/ttfsrc/Makefile (clean): remove *.bdf, so unifont_sample.bdf
441 * README: removed date stamp at top of file.
443 2013-12-15 Paul Hardy <unifoundry@unifoundry.com>
445 * Version: 6.3.20131215.

449 - Added new XLFD properties for font generation for FreeType and
450 grub-mkfont support; includes version & copyright info.
451 - Fields now begin with upper-case, including "unifont"-->"Unifont".
452 - Changed POINT_SIZE property from 160 to 120.
453 - Added "Sans" style name to FONT string plus XLFD property.
454 - Added command line options for font name, version, & glyph height.

456 support new capabilities of unihex2png, unipng2hex, and hexdraw.
457 * src/unidup.c: now takes an optional file name on the command line.
458 * src/*.c: reformatted to follow GNU Coding Standards.
459 * man/*: Updated man pages to reflect new options, new programs,
460 and to reflect the GPLv2+ license now common to all programs.
461 * doc/: new directory with Texinfo files.
462 * ChangeLog: created new file.
463 * COPYING: created new file.
464 * INSTALL: file created using BUILDING section from old README file.
465 * LICENSE: removed; its contents are in README and COPYING now.

468 * Makefiles (distclean): added removal of "*~" if not already declared.
469 * Makefile: compress text files with "gzip -f -9" during installation.
470 * font/Makefile: fontforge scripting updated; now adds font copyright,
471 license, version and other info to PCF files.
472 * font/hexsrc/unifont-base.hex:
473 - Redrew several Armenian letters (U+0530..U+058F).

477 * font/ttfsrc/Makefile: fontforge scripting command changed from
478 "Simplify(-1,1)" to "Simplify(64,1)" to "merge lines which are
479 nearly parallel into one". This decreases the TrueType file size
480 by almost 2 Megabytes, by reducing the number of control points
481 for a glyph. Also add font copyright, license, version, and
482 other info to TTF files.
483 * font/ttfsrc/Makefile: now builds SBIT font unifont_sample.ttf.
484 * unifontall-*: renamed to "unifont_sample-*".

487 * *.ttf: Added font version, copyright, etc. with fontforge.
488 * font/*/unifont-*.bmp: Create chart of entire Unifont using pre-built
489 unifont_sample.hex rather than assembling *.hex just for this image.

491 rieul was mentioned as an initial consonant instead of a final
492 consonant in an explanation of vertical spacing constraints.
494 - Updated hex2bdf parameters to name generated BDF font
495 "Unifont Johab" rather than "unifont" and add copyright.
496 - Used a sed script to change BDF encoding from ISO10646 to "Johab".
497 - Call bdftopcf to create hangul-base.pcf, then compress with gzip.
498 - Add "precompiled:" target to create basic Johab font files.
