Add support for Polish language diacritics to ET Book font #22

Open ochococo opened 6 years ago

ochococo commented 6 years ago

The font is great but outside English text it's almost useless.

Maybe we can find time and resources to add support for Polish diacritics? It's not that much work:

ĄĆĘŁŃÓŚŹŻ

and

ąćęłńóśźż

I can pay to add those 18 symbols 🙂

Hey @ochococo I would if I could, but my role in this project was merely in converting the original .suit files into .ttf etc. I would love to have these additions as well.

ochococo commented 6 years ago

@adamschwartz Do you know anybody who could do that as a contractor?

adamschwartz commented 6 years ago

I don’t directly, but @dpk (who made https://github.com/dpk/et-book) and @davelab6 (who is an expert on fonts and curator of fonts for Google Fonts) may have a better idea of where to get that help.

my attempt at https://github.com/dpk/et-book/issues/2#issuecomment-487935484 using Fontforge's autofill feature was only mildly successful… Screenshot from 2019-05-01 20-56-57

I'm also getting plenty of errors, when trying to actually save:

i suppose i can just generate it without validation, huh?
