I would like to collaborate in the development of Crimson font family in the field of the traditional Cyrillic and of the modern form of Bulgarian Cyrillic ( .loclBGR). Here is attachment with example of the modern form of Bulgarian Cyrillic for Crimson Text Roman.

Thank you for offering to contribute!

Before you spend too much time drawing glyphs: the sample you posted is based on a very old version of the font. To keep things consistent, I would suggest you grab the latest files from this repo and make the additions there.

May I work with the FontForge source files and return my offer again in FontForge .sfd files?

skosch commented 7 years ago

Certainly – though due to a bunch of back-and-forth with other contributions I'm not sure at this point what the proper build process is, so I'm reluctant to replace the binaries right now. You're certainly welcome though to submit patches to the source files and compile them however you like for your own usage until I figure out how to get a proper build process in place. I hope that makes sense?

I suggest to mark in cyan all the new glyphs, which I offer and to make a proper description of the changes in the FontForge files.

It seems Crimson Roman supports Cyrillic, but there is no Bold available to date, right?
