Glyph Reordering

Post by jorbjo »

I have a font where the glyphs have been scrambled up and the glyph set in incomplete.

I would like a function that would reorder the glyphs to the standard order and insert the missing glyphs in their correct position so that I could start filling in the missing glyphs and make the glyph set complete.

From the 'Tools' menu select 'Sort Glyphs' then select which order you want them in. 'Unicode Code Points' and 'Design mode' are the two most useful but for your purpose you want to sort by 'Unicode Code Points'.

When you have the glyphs in order right click on category under the 'Unicode' heading in the column on the left hand side of the window and from the context menu select 'Complete Category' which will add all the missing glyphs from that category.
