13.3 Adding a new font section

The font is divided into sections, each of which contains less than 224 glyphs. If more than 224 glyphs are included in a section, an error will be generated.

Each of the sections is contained in a separate .mf file. The files are named according to the type of glyphs in that section.

When adding a new section, it will be necessary to add the following:

• The code for the glyphs, in a file <section-name>.mf
• Driver files used to create the font in different sizes
• An entry in the generic file used to create the font, or a new generic file
• If necessary, new entries in the GNUmakefile
• An entry in ‘scripts/build/gen-emmentaler-scripts.py’

See the examples in mf/ for more information.
