I was happy to notice that the encoding of your font is 10646-1 i.e. it's an Unicode font. This is of personal interest to me because my open source hobby is a chess database (no, I haven't published it yet) and one of the many things I need is a chess font. I actually made using pfaedit a chess TTF which looks quite good when printed but horrible on screen if the size is small. I used GPL'd images from eboard-extras-pack1. When I asked at rec.games.chess.computer what kind of encoding I should use it was pointed out that Unicode has chess pieces from decimal 9812 to decimal 9823. It would be great, at least for me, if your font included chess pieces. I'll be quite willing to contribute (how can I contribute to a font?) unless someone who undestands fonts wants to do it. -- Ari Makela [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://arska.org/hauva/ "Sailing is, after all, a kind of grace, a kind of magic." - Phil Berman
