Code2000 is a work-in-process. It currently (Version 1.02) has almost 29000
glyphs.
It is still a bit rough, in spots. I am constantly working to improve it and
add more glyphs.
Although it is more-or-less readable at 12 - 18 point, it is much clearer at
about 24 point. Some of the dingbats should be at least 36 point. With font-
smoothing it looks good at 14 point.
Windows 98 has font-smoothing built-in. Microsoft has font-smoothing
available for free download for Windows 95. If you're running Windows 95
you should definitely get font smoothing.
To download font smoothing for Windows 95, go to
http://www.microsoft.com/typography/grayscal/smoother.htm
To enable font smoothing in Windows 98:
1) Click My Computer
2) Click Control Panel
3) Click Display
4) Click Effects tab
5) Put check in box called "Smooth Edges of Screen Fonts"
All of the glyphs are mine, painstakingly drawn one point at a time. I try
to design glyphs which are true to the language they represent based on as
many script samples as I can obtain.
Some of the scripts are only partially represented in the font.
