We hardly need a compact Old Hungarian font for UI, without any ligatures. Ligatures are useful for text editors only. Must to follow and only follow the unicode standard form. Document about it downloadable from page http://unicode.org/charts This ui font might to include ltr version of the glyphs, because of that, it signed as, unfortunatelly, right-to-left "dominant" script. I attach the copy of the document, which must to follow, and downloaded from page http://unicode.org/charts Here is the doc.: U10C80.pdf

@marekjez86 May I ask you to sign it as "new features" and "Old Hungarian script"?

@marekjez86 The full path of the document, which we need follow only, is http://unicode.org/charts/PDF/U10C80.pdf

@google-admin @marekjez86 I already made the font and uploaded to noto-source project, and I created a PR. In the future, font source named NotoOldHungarianUI.glyphs and its binary compilation nobody change, please (I think about, for example, David Corbett request, which is doesn't follow the UNICODE standard), except the standard forms changed (now the document downloadable from page http://unicode.org/charts/PDF/U10C80.pdf ) Because of that the NotoOldHungarianUI font was developed for UI, and simple UI doesn't use ligatures, (for example terminals) nobody add ligatures to it. It made for UI only with compact size. If someone want to use ligatures, use the NotoSansOldHungarian-Regular font: https://github.com/googlefonts/noto-fonts/blob/4900c576b35342f5d4a8ff109c7efb80fb3b8fb9/unhinted/ttf/NotoSansOldHungarian/NotoSansOldHungarian-Regular.ttf Pointless to extending with ligatures the UI font, because of that, NotoOldHungarianUI font source derived from https://github.com/googlefonts/noto-fonts/blob/4900c576b35342f5d4a8ff109c7efb80fb3b8fb9/unhinted/ttf/NotoSansOldHungarian/NotoSansOldHungarian-Regular.ttf font, except the Old Hungarian numbers' size is capital-like. ZWJ and ligatures where removed. Thank You!

@marekjez86 Marek, I think, it's real demand. There are another native script's for UI in compact form.

Feel free to post the font anywhere you want to (e.g., on your own github) as long as it is licensed properly (see https://github.com/googlefonts/noto-fonts/blob/master/LICENSE ) and NOT named Noto ... Noto will not use this pull request.

@marekjez86 Marek, only the license text wrong? I will resolve it, and as you ask, rename it!

ghost commented 3 years ago

@marekjez86 Marek, we still have a need!

ghost commented 3 years ago

@marekjez86 Marek, the Old Hungarian script doesn't need ligatures. The lugatures are only possibilities
