- JdeBP 6y agoWe can only take them at their word, when the downloadable file hyperlink is entitled "Source Code (zip)" and it hyperlinks to a ZIP file of these GIFs, that these are supposed to be the source glyphs. And these GIFs are roughly the same sizes as the supposedly extracted glyphs at https://github.com/altmind/AAPL-last-resort-glyphs https://github.com/altmind/AAPL-last-resort-glyphs . Nothing this detailed will fit into 32 by 32 , vector-based or no. There simply aren't enough pixels for the words and numbers on the borders. Also notice that the significanty smaller "last resort glyphs" at http://unicode.org/charts/lastresort.html http://unicode.org/charts/lastresort.html are not the same as what is purportedly in this font.
- etbebl 6y agoNo, I'm fairly sure that was not their intent. It says at the bottom of the readme: NOTE: The sources and build scripts may be added after Unicode Version 14.0.0 has been released (2021), and as time and resources permit. So this repo doesn't have the source currently, despite what it may say earlier in the readme. I'm assuming the TTF file in the release is the actual font, and the "Source code" zip is just an automatic archive of what's currently in the repository.
