Eckhard, I had another look at your font page. So far, I can't understand how it is supposed to work. For example, when I look at the Viking style A (it's nice to see how it looks when woven, thank you), I see the shape of the letter A created by the Fs on a background of Bs. I don't see the turning pattern FFBB which is required to get the double-faced weave. Are you only trying to show the shape of the letters and not the actual turning pattern? Maybe I'm trying to read something that isn't there. >The fonts are for double-faced weave; at present the assumption is that all >cards are S-threaded. I plan to allow for configuration of either all-S, >all-Z, or alternate S/Z at some stage, but that's still some way in the >future. I have been thinking that the tablets could be arranged in any of the above three ways. They will look different when woven. I was not planning to specify tablet arrangement in my book, but to just show some examples of the difference between all threaded in one direction and alternately-threaded tablets. Generally I prefer alternately-threaded because I like the surface texture and the tablets are easier to turn.
