I'd like to export a list of glyph codepoints

FontCreator - Font Editor

It would be great if the Export menu had an additional section where you could export the selected characters’ (ctrl-A for all) code points. Right now ctrl-C copies the glyph names, but I don’t need those. I need a list of all Unicode code points included in the font. It could be located underneath Tools > Glyph Names option.
If we want to get really fancy, it could be exported as csv/tsv with more info, like:
the actual character, codepoint, glyph name
Or have an option to export the list as a condensed Unicode code point range list.
I currently own FC8 but would re-buy FC15 if it included this. So consider it pure profit for a couple of hours’ worth of work :slight_smile:

Here’s a link to some AI generated starter:

If the general consensus is “too niche”, I can add the above C++ code to a VS project and have another little tool for my GitHub page :slight_smile: lemme know what you think.

Over the years we have had multiple requests for this, so what about this:

These might also be useful:
Columns separated with: ,
Columns enclosed with: "
Columns escaped with: \

Let me know what you all think of this!

This might be the best dev response I ever received. Let me get my credit card! This does way more than I need and that’s really awesome. I can’t imagine anyone missing something here.
