It would be great if it can generate Character Map like this:

Not sure how viable is this but it can be use for detailed font generation.

You can use the Print Command and print to a PDF printer driver. This one was done at a Windows 125% display setting, so the font is a bit too big (30 pt instead of 24pt), but it's easy enough to print a character set.

Thanks for the info.

I am curious if it is also possible to do something like that for the HTML web export instead of PDF?
The character map will be generated as images...

Hi,

Just to followup with my inquiry. I am curious if I can do HTML export that looks something like the following site:

No, that is not possible. You can view all characters as well as all glyphs within MainType.

If more people think this is an important improvement, we will certainly consider adding it in a future release.
