UcodeGlyphs3 Version 1.00 April 2002
~~~~~~~~~~~~
You must already have my Ucode distribution installed, before you can
install UcodeGlyphs3. (i.e. Ucode.lha in text/show)
UcodeGlyphs3 contains glyphs for all Unicodes from 4E00 - 57FF for the
principal nominal heights, i.e.:
5 tiny
8 small
11 normal
14 H1
17 H2
20 H3
23 H4
26 H5
29 H6
and the following other attributes:
width descriptor NM normal
style descriptor SS sans serif
weight descriptor 1 lightest
The glyphs 4E00 - 9FFF make up the entire set of CJK glyphs. You can
find the CJK glyphs of the principal nominal heights in these glyph packs:
UcodeGlyphs3 4E00 - 57FF
UcodeGlyphs4 5800 - 63FF
UcodeGlyphs5 6400 - 6FFF
UcodeGlyphs6 7000 - 7BFF
UcodeGlyphs7 7C00 - 87FF
UcodeGlyphs8 8800 - 93FF
UcodeGlyphs9 9400 - 9FFF
So, in Ucode glyph packs 3 to 9, you have all the basic CJK glyphs in all
the principal nominal heights.
Notes
~~~~~
1. Most CJK glyphs are unreadable in sizes 5 and 8.
2. Although I describe size 11 as "normal", CJK characters are hard
to read at that size, and in practice you would want to use larger
sizes to display CJK text.
3. For size 29, I have rather poor glyphs for some of the less-used
glyphs. But all the glyphs in Big5, Shift-JIS and KSX5601 are of
good quality.
4. The glyphs in these glyph packs are optimised for Chinese. I will
distribute in further glyph packs optimised for Japanese Shift-JIS
characters.
5. The glyphs are in traditional style, optimised for readability rather
than beauty. They look more like the sample glyphs in Version 2 of
the Unicode than those in version 3.
6. I have made the glyphs all of fixed width in accord with usual CJK
text layout.
7. The license in my Ucode distribution applies also to this glyph pack.
