Hello Glyphs users! I am very new to the forum and I have a beginner question: I have a long unicode list and I wanted to know if there is a way to import it into glyphs and get a new font file. I am not familiar with the glyphs names on GlyphsApp, so I would like to add the unicode a let the app apply the correct glyphs name. Thank you for your help! ---

You can add a [List Filter](https://handbook.glyphsapp.com/filtering/#filtering/list-filters) and use one unicode character per line in the filter. ![Bildschirmfoto 2025-10-07 um 19.44.34](https://forum.glyphsapp.com/uploads/default/original/3X/8/3/838e069182561cb1f4c919401d62880da47f0e76.png) You can use the Glyphs Text Services to convert unicodes to names a such.

Thank you Georg! I read all you sent, and I found the solution with Kamyab Jafari: cmd + shift + G → past my unicode list (uniXXXX space separated). ![Capture d’écran 2025-10-08 à 12.17.13](https://forum.glyphsapp.com/uploads/default/original/3X/f/6/f6d67cccca96be1b7098a5abb056ea7dadfab7d5.jpeg) ---

You can learn all about adding new glyphs from the Handbook: > **[Managing the Glyph Set — Glyphs Handbook](https://handbook.glyphsapp.com/glyph-set/)** > > Adding, copying, pasting, and deleting glyphs.
