I have prepared a set of fonts based on Stokoe's notation with modification,
using fontography. The file includes fonts for handshapes, handshape
notations, location, movement and the rest, following the framework of the
Dictionary of British Sign Language. But my file is in PC format, not MAC.
Would it be a problem if anyone wants to use it? I basically install it in
the FONT file of Windows and insert the specific notations through INSERT
SYMBOL or using specical shortcut keys.
