Wrong: Thai and Lao are listed explicitly, but other Brahmic scripts are included progressively and implied by the "etc." in the list. Also look at this page and you'll see that Indian Brahmic scripts are considered in this project with available resources: http://www.nongnu.org/freefont/resources.html For now there's no resource in East Asian scripts, but they are listed and will appear later. Most probably a separate FreeHan font will be designed for CJK, but this is a huge work if you consider that the representative glyphs are hard to collect and summarize with stroke decomposition rules before attempting to create an actual Han font. I wonder if the UniHan database for example is accurate for the ideographic decomposition into basic strokes. This is something that seems really needed to create a good Han font... __________________________________________________________________ << ella for Spam Control >> has removed Spam messages and set aside Newsletters for me You can use it too - and it's FREE! http://www.ellaforspam.com
