What’s Junicode? Well,

Junicode (short for Junius-​Unicode) is a Uni­code font for medi­ev­al­ists. The cur­rent ver­sion is a beta; the selec­tion of char­ac­ters and the arrange­ment of the Private Use Area are sub­ject to change. Your com­ments, sug­ges­tions and bug reports will be a great help to me as I com­plete the project.

If you look at the font cov­er­age of Junicode, you will notice that Greek is miss­ing. There is a new pro­ject to add Greek sup­port in Junicode, and the font designer asks for feed­back from Greek-​speaking users,

You can help with this pro­ject, if you know Greek better than I do, by provid­ing feed­back. Some ques­tions that occur to me:

• Wilson’s font does not have the k-style kappa. Should I include this, or just use the x-style kappa?
• The shapes of zeta, rho, phi and per­haps others differ markedly from what one usu­ally sees in modern Greek fonts. Should these be mod­ern­ized, or will they do as-​is?

I wel­come any and all sug­ges­tions. Please write to the address below.
