ttf-babelstone-latin contains the following fonts
|
||
|
||
BabelStone Roman:
|
||
|
||
It is a Unicode serif font covering the Latin script.
|
||
It was designed primarily for use in phonetic
|
||
transcription of Tangut, but may be useful for
|
||
other purposes. he current version of the font supports
|
||
Unicode 15.0 and covers all 1,481 Latin script
|
||
characters defined in Unicode 15.0.
|
||
|
||
BabelStone Englisc:
|
||
|
||
It is a font for Old English in the general style of
|
||
the Anglo-Saxon font cut for Franciscus Junius (1591–1677)
|
||
in about 1655, and used in various editions of Anglo-Saxon
|
||
texts published in Oxford during the 17th and 18th centuries,
|
||
for example the Anglo-Saxon Heptateuch compiled by Edward
|
||
Thwaites, and published in 1698. The font uses the same
|
||
letterforms as the Junius font, but not necessarily exactly
|
||
same glyph forms. Some characters are double-mapped, both to
|
||
their proper Unicode code point and to the
|
||
semantically-corresponding character
|
||
(e.g. 'wynn' maps to 'wynn' and 'w'; and 'and' maps
|
||
to 'tyronian et' and 'ampersand').
|
||
|
||
NB: This font is only available in regular style, and
|
||
there are no bold or italic versions.
|
||
|
||
BabelStone Goblin fonts:
|
||
|
||
BabelStone Goblin and BabelStone Goblin Vertical are two
|
||
versions of a font based on North Polar Bear's Goblin
|
||
alphabet in J. R. R. Tolkien's Father Christmas Letters (1976).
|
||
|
||
BabelStone Goblin is designed for horizontal layout, whereas
|
||
BabelStone Goblin Vertical is designed for vertical layout.
|
||
Note that the glyphs of the vertical font will be rotated
|
||
counterclockwise with respect to normal reading orientation
|
||
when used in horizontal contexts
|
||
|
||
BabelStone Centaurian:
|
||
|
||
BabelStone Centaurian is a font based on the Centaurian
|
||
alphabet used in the first UK edition of Artemis Fowl :
|
||
The Arctic Incident by Eoin Colfer (it has been replaced
|
||
by the ubiquitous Gnommish script in the American and
|
||
recent UK editions).
|
||
|
||
The Centaurian alphabet is cypher of the English alphabet,
|
||
but with the twist that the space character is a
|
||
non-blank glyph and the character corresponding to the letter
|
||
T is a blank space.
|
||
|
||
BabelStone Pigpen fonts:
|
||
|
||
BabelStone Pigpen is an extended version of one of the most
|
||
common pigpen ciphers, with glyphs for all characters in the
|
||
Basic Latin block.
|
||
|
||
BabelStone Club Penguin is an extended version of the
|
||
pigpen cipher used on Club Penguin, with glyphs for all
|
||
characters in the Basic Latin block.
|
||
|
||
BabelStone Leeson is the pigpen cipher used on the tombstone
|
||
of James Leeson (died 1794) in the graveyard of Trinity Church
|
||
on Broadway in New York. This cipher represents the 24-letter
|
||
alphabet of the 18th century, so that I/J and U/V are not
|
||
distinguished. There are three spare berths in the third pigpen,
|
||
which I have assigned to ampersand, question mark and exclamation mark.
