Are we supposed to be able to see the character SignWriting (CSW)
in email? It didn't render for me in Thunderbird.<br>

Hi Eduardo,<br>
<br>
That's an excellent idea. Such a trimming could produce language
dependent fonts.<br>
<br>
The reduced fonts should be based on actual usage. The ASL
Dictionary in SignPuddles provides live statistics based on over
10,000 signs using the search algorithms of SignWriting Text.<br>

Looking at the first group of hand shapes:<br>

You can process the data directly from the SPML files, or I can
create an alternate form of the symbol frequency data.<br>
<br>
We will also need one for Libras:<br>

<br>
I hope 2013 will be the year that the Libras Wikipedia project
starts. It's currently just a stub.<br>

If you can get this working, I'll have to re-implement the
original Unicode compromise proposal that I dropped in 2011.<br>
<br>
We have FSW: formal SignWriting:<br>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;
charset=ISO-8859-1">
M518x529S14c20481x471S27106503x489
M518x533S1870a489x515S18701482x490S20500508x496S2e734500x468
S38800464x496<br>
<br>
We have CSW: character SignWriting:<br>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;
charset=ISO-8859-1">
������������� ����������������������� ����� <br>
<br>
Here is ISW: intermixed SignWriting<br>
M518x529���481x471���503x489 M518x533���489x515���482x490
���508x496���500x468 ���464x496<br>
<br>
Here is how the ISW could look after you create the smart font
language specific reduction that only renders symbol glyphs. The
signs are still obscure, but a little more obvious.<br>

<img src="cid:part11.05020804.02040202@tampabay.rr.com" alt="">464x496<br>
<br>
And once the characters and symbols are correctly rendered in
graphite, we will be able to see the actual written sign.<br>

Good luck,<br>
