Junicode is an advanced Unicode font for medieval scholars, including the
|
|
full range of characters for languages written in the Latin script. It
|
|
also mostly implements the recommendation of the Medieval Unicode Font
|
|
Initiative (MUFI).
|
|
|
|
The following languages are fully supported: Old and Middle English, Old
|
|
Icelandic, Runic, Latin, Gothic and Sanskrit transliterations, IPA
|
|
(International Phonetic Alphabet) and Greek (based on the Greek Double
|
|
Pica cut by Alexander Wilson of Glasgow in the eighteenth century).
|
|
|
|
Junicode supports the following OpenType features: f and long-s ligatures,
|
|
contextual and stylistic alternates (calt, salt), horizontal kerning
|
|
(kern), discretionary ligatures (circled numbers and letters via dlig),
|
|
MUFI historical ligatures (hlig), glyph (de)composition (ccmp), correct
|
|
positioning of combining marks -- mark-to-base (mark) and mark-to-mark
|
|
(mkmk), small caps (smcp and c2sc), old-style figures (onum), super- and
|
|
subscript numbers (sups and subs), Unicode fractions (frac), swashes
|
|
(swsh) and mirrored runes (rtlm).
|
|
|
|
Junicode's OpenType style sets provide support for Nordic and Insular
|
|
letter-forms, Old English typography, enlarged minuscules, E caudata,
|
|
alternate yogh, MUFI's overlined/deleted characters and many more.
