Re: [Indic-computing-users] Re: Help needed for modifying Akruti Devnagari font.

[Dr. U.B. P. <pav...@vi...>]

You need to have all the characters required as per Unicode 
chart for that specific language. Beyond that, you can have 
any number of glyphs without any Unicode value assigned to 
them. Put all the glyphs in any order. Import it to VOLT and 
then give them names using the glyph editor. Make glyph 
groups like full, half, vowels, matras, etc. Add the 
language, feature, lookups, etc. You can use Mangal.Volt.TTF 
which comes along with VOLT as reference.
