Hello. I want to change some character names, and keep the unicode-s.
a.ss02 to a, aring.ss02 to aring etc. and back: a.ss02 to a
Is there a script or fast way to change? (I have 16 fonts, and 9 glyph from each font)
What do you mean, you want to keep the unicodes? Does your a.ss02 have a unicode value assigned?
Well.. i meant when I change the a.ss02 to a.. the new a keeps the 0061 unicode.
But Iāve done the find and replace function, which works awesome.
I just wanted to know if there is a script or something to make such changes for more fonts at the same time.
Not sure I understand?
Unsuffixed glyphs like a already have the Unicode (so they can be accessed by typing or other input methods); a.xxx doesnāt need a Unicode because it is accessed through an opentype feature. Why would you want to apply a Unicode value to a suffixed glyph?
Or do you mean youāre concerned about what happens if you switch a for a.xxx by changing the glyph names? Donāt worry, Unicode values get applied automatically based on the glyph names.
