You can use "fontforge" for creating the font. It has good documentation and tutorial on font development here http://fontforge.sourceforge.net/ . "Meitei Mayek" character set is not yet encoded in the Unicode (in case you don't know about encoding standards, you may refer www.unicode.org), but even creating a font without encoding is a good starting step to get the activities going up for the script. -- Rahul. http://b.rahul.pm.googlepages.com/home - http://rahulpmb.blogspot.com - http://samadiyami.blogspot.com - http://mazikavita.blogspot.com _______________________________________________ Fedora-india mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-india
