Version 0.003 - Greek, Improved Kerning.


Polygothic now has basic support for Modern Greek! (Which I hope is roughly what the text below reads!)


Version 0.003 brings support for the Greek and Coptic Unicode block, including more Kerning pairs and a revision of existing pairs. At this point, all Greek and Cyrillic characters should all appear to be spaced correctly,  and so should the majority of Latin ones. Kerning pairs are still missing for most of Latin Extended-B and IPA extensions. This work will continue slowly over time.

Moving forward, the plan is to still provide support for Korean and then Arabic. Work is progressing on these, but it's on the slow side. I've received requests to include Japanese as well, so I'm adding Hiragana and Katakana to the list as well. Kanji support is also something to consider, but it's a very large undertaking that involves mapping out tens of thousands of characters, so I'm not that eager to start it yet. That said, if there are requests for it, I can work on bumping that up the line!

There has also been a request to make a pixel version of this font. This is something that is also going forward, but considering how long kerning takes, you guessed it, progress is also slow on it. That said, I may be able to release something with a more limited character set reasonably soon. Keep an eye out here for more updates.
