I have added 22 new characters to Mike Hebrew Regular thereby completing all the Unicode for Hebrew. Many of these new characters are composites. Now I want to get these characters into Italic, Bold and Bold Italic. What is the best way to go about doing this? I’d hate to have to repeat three times all the work I have just done. Can I copy a group of letters from one font to another? Would the mappings also be copied? Can a composite character be copied? I’m grateful for having access in FCP to a product I can afford! Since I’m retired I have the time but repetative work does get mighty tedious. Mike --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.high-logic.com/t/adding-new-characters-to-a-family/686)._
