I've been discussing possible future font development projects with SBL
and with some members of the Font Foundation, and would like to invite
members of the community to comment on preferred priorities. Below is a
list of some of the additional scrips or type styles that have been
mentioned to date. Please let me know which of these you consider most
important to your work, or feel free to suggest other possibilities. If
you have a very specific preference, it would be helpful to know what
sort of work you are doing that requires such fonts.
* Armenian font
* BibLit (Latin, apparatus sigla, etc) Bold and Bold Italic fonts
* Old Canaanite / Palaeo-Hebrew
* Coptic, Sahidic (ancient) style
* Coptic, Bohairic (ecclesiastic) style
* Ethiopic (Ge'ez)
* Georgian*
* Greek Bold and Bold Italic fonts
* Greek uncial font (codex style)
* Hebrew Bold font
* Syriac, Estrangelo style
* Syriac, Serto style
* Syriac, Eastern style
* Ugaritic
* I am interested to know which style of the Georgian script is most
important for scholars working with Georgian gospels.
