I’d like to have some control of them to make my own ordinal subgroups. Further, some are called “Private Use”, some are called “Other” and some are under the heading “Predefined Sorting”. Took a few hours.īut now my characters are not in any kind of visual (index) order that makes any sense for how they should be clustered. To straighten it all out, without coming up with conflicts with misplaced names and UNICODE values, I just assigned manually a unicode value F00XX to every character, and then I fixed up all the names, one at a time. I’m a coder, but wasn’t sure for a one off task mastering the API was a good time investment for this. The font was created with TypeTool III, and it guess its defaults were different as you mentioned I can avert the default sort/processing. I started fixing that by hand, because FontLabs 7 demo does the same thing. The re-ordering got some of the custom character names and UNICODE values reassigned to the wrong glyphs. Is there a way built in or plugin where I can list all my glyph names (maybe even graphic) in a table next to their index and UNICODE value? I need more control of the numbers or at least a way to quickly figure out what the app did and make my stuff go along with that. ![]() It looks as though the Glyphs app tried to assume the right UNICODE value based on the name I gave to the glyph, but that won’t work because this isn’t mapping to the UNICODE space in that way. I imported the TTF, but somehow the unicode numbers are all wrong now after I exported it, and I don’t know how to get a list of all the custom assigned glyph names I had next to the UNICODE number and index, which I used to create a mapping file in my app originally, so it’s going to be extremely tedious to reassign the new numbers. I originally used Type Tool III by the competitor and decided to upgrade to this. I’m not using this for ordinary font, but for glyphs, art, for my app. I may have done a dumb thing when playing with menu options that caused it to re-assign numbers. I have to check to see if my app is using index of the glyph rather than UNICODE and glyphs app reassigned the indicies instead. Not sure though because my app is showing all the wrong glyphs. I guess when I accidentally deleted the character previously and couldn’t undo, I re-created it and gave it a name and the UNICODE value corresponding to the name I entered was assigned automatically, and it didn’t break the whole font. Okay, update: I figured out how to get the UNICODE listed next to the character (but not the font index), and see how I can force/override the assignment in the Font table. But it would be nice if you guys could actually expose and give access to the glyph indices as well. To fix this I’ll have to apparently use a UNICODE mapping file. Somehow the exported indicies don’t agree with the imported numbers and the index seems to be held opaque to me in the app. ![]() more a pure ‘glyph’ mode), and my mapping file in the app uses the glyph index, not the UNICODE value… Ok, the problem is that, with TypeTool III, one could see and work with the glyph index of the glyphs not just the UNICODE number (e.g. Final update: I learned enough of the API to straighten this out and re-order/re-index the glyphs assign new UNICODE and get the names all fixed up.
