Changelog:

24 February 2024 (Unifont 15.1.05)

Plane 0:

Ho-seok Ee redrew all Hangul glyphs not in the Hangul Syllables range, so their style more closely resembles the style of the Hangul Syllables range: U+1100..U+11FF Hangul Jamo, U+3131..U+318E Hangul Compatibility Jamo, U+A960..U+A97C Hangul Jamo Extended-A, U+D7B0..U+D7FB Hangul Jamo Extended-B.
Hayden Wong improved several glyphs in the range U+2100..U+214F Letterlike Symbols.
Johnnie Weaver redrew U+013D LATIN CAPITAL LETTER L WITH CARON for better compatibility with other glyphs in the Czech and Slovak alphabets.

Planes 2 and 3:
Almost 600 new ideographs, including:

Boris Zhang and Yzy32767 contributed U+20000..U+2001F.
Boris Zhang and Yzy32767 contributed the entire CJK Unified Ideographs Extension D range, U+2B740..U+2B81D.
湖远星 contributed 335 glyphs across Plane 2 and Plane 3 with common Cantonese ideographs.
Other new idegraphs in CJK Unified Ideographs Extension I.

Plane F:

Paul Hardy modified the Sitelen Pona script, added combining character indicators and adding several new glyphs since the last release. This completes the most current version of Sitelen Pona encodings.

v15.1.01

12 September 2023 Release (Unifont 15.1.01)

Note from uploader at this mirror:
Due to Unifont 15.1.01 being the first release that doesn't provide .ttf (TrueType) in its package, the file unifont-15.1.01.ttf attached below is our way of providing for our own needs at mtasa-blue, as well as helping out other OSS users/projects that are still going to need it; we have set up GitHub Actions to build the .ttf (TrueType) version of Unifont anyways, and attached .ttf is the resulting file for this release.

Huge thanks to @AlexTMjugador for studying the .ttf build procedure (all that Unifoundry said was "TrueType fonts can still be built from the distribution tarball using the command "make truetype" in the font directory", which falls short) and setting up the GitHub Actions runner. We will continue to provide these in all subsequent releases for A) as long it's compatible and B) we won't face the scenario where large modifications are required to keep it working in a future during which we don't have a person with the know-how & time to fix it up. So please do not rely/lock in on future updates from this mirror always offering .ttf (TrueType) fonts, we will do it for as long is feasible for ourselves.

Unifont 15.1

12 September 2023 (Unifont 15.1.01)

As mentioned during the year leading up to this release, TrueType fonts are no longer produced by the default build; OpenType fonts have taken their place. This change has been driven by the diminishing support for TrueType fonts in the Pango font rendering engine. TrueType fonts can still be built from the distribution tarball using the command "make truetype" in the font directory.

Ho-Seok Ee proposed a new Johab encoding for algorithmic Hangul Syllables generation. The resulting scheme uses 6 variations of initial consonants (choseong), 3 of medial vowels and diphthongs (jungseong), and 1 of final consonants (jongseong). The image on the left is partial output from a new supporting Unifont utility, unijohab2html, which gives an overview of how the three components of a Hangul syllable combine with each other and outputs any overlaps for a font designer's analysis. A full discussion of this new Johab 6/3/1 encoding appears on the Unifont Hangul Syllables Generation web page. Minseo Lee (이민서) provided feedback on the glyphs prior to their release.

Following a suggestion by Ho-Seok Ee, the hangul-base.hex file that contains the Johab 6/3/1 glyphs for Hangul syllable formation now begins at code point U+E000. This allows building a Unifont variant with that entire Hangul johab glyph set in the Uniode Plane 0 Private Use Area (PUA) using the command "make PUA=plane00/hangul/hangul-base.hex". in the font directory. Unifont builds have traditionally left the PUA available for CSUR/UCSUR glyphs, which is still the default; see below for a discussion of the CSUR/UCSUR glyphs.
Johnnie Weaver modified "IJ" ligature glyphs U+0132 and U+0133. He also modified U+1E9E LATIN CAPITAL LETTER SHARP S.
Paul Hardy:
- Modified U+2CC2 COPTIC CAPITAL LETTER CROSSED SHEI and U+2CC3 COPTIC SMALL LETTER CROSSED SHEI for consistency with the redrawn U+03E2 COPTIC CAPITAL LETTER SHEI and U+03E3 COPTIC SMALL LETTER SHEI.
- Redrew Ideographic Description Characters (U+2FF0..U+2FFB) for consistency and added new glyphs (U+2FFC..U+2FFF). Also added CJK Strokes glyph U+31EF IDEOGRAPHIC DESCRIPTION CHARACTER SUBTRACTION.
- Modified star glyphs U+2605, U+2606, and U+2BE8 for consistency.
- Modified several Chinese ideographs and Korean ideographs in CJK Unified Ideographs Extension A (U+3400..U+4DBF) per the Unicode Standard version 15.1.0.
- Wen Quan Yi Glyphs: Made modifications to Korean ideographs in CJK Unified Ideographs Extension A (U+3400..U+4DBF) per Unicode 15.1.0 changes. Modified CJK Unified Ideographs Extension A U+3B9D, U+454E, U+49C8 (from 湖远星) and U+56B8. Modified CJK Unified Ideographs Extension U+809E and U+891D.
- Modified Alchemical Symbols (U+1F700..U+1F77F) per Unicode 15.1.0 changes.
- Added three hexadecimal digit notations to the Plane 0 UCSUR:
  - U+EBE0..U+EBEF: Boby Lapointe's "bibi-binary" notation.
  - U+EBF0..U+EBFF: Bruce Alan Martin's bit location notation.
  - U+ECF0..U+ECFF: Ronald O. Whitaker's triangular notation.
Implemented other glyph changes per the Unicode Standard version 15.1.0.
Several other minor changes; see the ChangeLog file in the main tarball for details.

v15.0.06

c7dc9d0

4 June 2023 Release (Unifont 15.0.06)

This also includes the v15.0.04 and v15.0.05 updates.

4 June 2023 (Unifont 15.0.06)

N.B.: This is expected to be the last release with TrueType fonts built by default; OpenType versions will replace the legacy TrueType fonts in future releases. It will still be possible to manually build the TrueType fonts in the future with the "make truetype" command in the font directory. That make command is already implemented and so is available for experimentation.
Minseo Lee (이민서) made further modifications to the glyphs used to generate the Hangul Syllables block (U+AC00..U+D7A3), and modified Hangul glyphs in the ranges U+3131.U+318E, U+3200..U+321E, and U+3260..U+327F to match the style of the new Hangul Syllables glyphs.

3 June 2023 (Unifont 15.0.05)

Minseo Lee (이민서) has contributed a new Hangul Syllables block of 11,172 glyphs generated by the Unifont package's johab2ucs2 script, which he altered slightly. Details are in the ChangeLog file.

28 May 2023 (Unifont 15.0.04)

This release is a minor update with some redrawn Greek and Coptic letters (U+0370..U+03FF): tonos moved down and to the left of capital vowels, baselines and x-heights adjusted for consistency, etc. Two redrawn heart icons. Glyphs for the CSUR script Engsvanyáli have also been added. Full details are in the ChangeLog file.

21 May 2023 Release (Unifont 15.0.03)

This also includes the v15.0.02 update.

21 May 2023 (Unifont 15.0.03)

Minor update with some Makefile modifications. The one notable change is that unifont_all.hex is now installed in the .../share/unifont directory, at the request of the gaming community. This hex file spans all Unicode planes. The unifont_jp.hex file now also includes the Plane 3 glyphs by Ming Fan.

20 May 2023 (Unifont 15.0.02)

N.B.: This is expected to be the last Unifont release to build TrueType fonts by default, replaced by OpenType versions. TrueType fonts will still be able to be built manually using the command "make truetype" inside the font directory. The OpenType fonts are more compact than the legacy TrueType versions.
Added Plane 2 Chinese ideographs drawn by 湖远星 to the basic Unifont font files for coverage of the General Standard Chinese Characters set. Also added Plane 3 glyphs drawn by Ming Fan, with permission.
Updated Fullwidth CJK characters in the range U+FF00..U+FFEF so they no longer appear boldface, using glyphs from Wen Quan Yi with some modifications. Thanks to 何志翔 (He Zhixiang) for checking their alignment and suggesting improvements.
Minor updates to other individual glyphs, notably a much improved skunk glyph (U+1F9A8) from Curtis Mackie. See the ChangeLog file in the release tar file for full details.

13 September 2022 Release (Unifont 15.0.01)

Release: Unifont 15.0.01

This also includes the following updates:
Unifont 14.0.01
Unifont 14.0.02
Unifont 14.0.03
Unifont 14.0.04

Of which the changelogs:

Change from TrueType to OpenType

Unifont 14.0.03 introduced OpenType fonts produced using the hex2otf program by 何志翔 (He Zhixiang). The OpenType versions are built but not installed by default in Unifont 14.0.03 and Unifont 15.0.01.

Unifont 15.0.01 installs OpenType fonts alongside the TrueType fonts that are installed in Unifont 14.0.x and previous releases. The current plan is for Unifont 16.0.01 to no longer install TrueType fonts that have OpenType equivalents. This will allow a period of approximately one year for Unifont users to switch from TrueType to OpenType files.

  - unifont-14.0.03.otf
  - unifont_jp-14.0.03.ot
  - unifont_csur-14.0.03.otf
