Suggestion: enable printing glyphs not assigned to a unicode slot #11

Open svenper opened 6 years ago

svenper commented 6 years ago

Currently it prints unicode blocks, which in the case of fonts with alternates accessed with opentype features does not print all of the glyphs, unless they are assigned to the private use area.

Extra glyphs could be printed in a separate page after unicode, or there could be a mode to print glyphs in the order they are in the font, or some other order entirely.

I support this feature request, but suggest a simple approach: please add command line parameters for setting OpenType features.

@jsbien Which OpenType features are you referring to?

jsbien commented 4 years ago

Personally I'm interested primarily in the features added recently to JuniusX: cv16 and cv13, also in ss15 (various shapes of e caudata) used also in Junicode.
