Fontlab: How to add Latin-3 to a new font?

David Waschbüsch

Hi,

I ran into a problem today. Currently working on my first font in FontLab, I wondered if there is a method to add for instance all ISO-Latin-3 glyphs (just the empty glyph cells) to a font without generating hundreds of glyphs one by one. I searched the manual but found nothing. Fontlab.com FAQ reffers to a page taken down in 2008 for this problem.

Sorry for asking such a basic question. I hope someone can help me with this. :)

Thank you in advance.

PS: I hope I put this into the right section of the forum. If not sorry for that.

In the font window, click the codepages icon (on the right of the toolbar), then select Latin 3 from the drop down menu.

. The glyph cells will then show Latin 3 glyphs. If you select all of these and generate all you should have what you need.

Thats amazingly easy. Thank for your help Bendy! :)

You're welcome. Glad it works! :)
