Pendot L

Pendot L is a prototype font for writing education in the Latin script. It is incomplete and will change considerably. Please do not use this as a source of derivatives. A much more useful font will eventually be released that will be a better source. Thank you!

Minimal setup for the build

On Ubuntu/macOS/WSL2 you need:

  • a recent version of python3 to handle the virtual environment (3.10+)
  • other python3 dependencies will be installed via the Makefile calling the requirements.txt
  • GNU make to run the Makefile
  • sudo apt install make automake for Ubuntu
  • brew install make for macOS

Build steps

make build : Builds the fonts and places them in the fonts/ directory

make test : Runs Fontbakery tests and generates reports in md and html in out/fontbakery

make clean : Removes generated files from the build, including the virtual environment folder(s)

make images : Generates Drawbot proof image(s)

Pendot Design Glyphs plugin setup

Until the Pendot Designer is available directly inside the Glyphs plugin manager, the installation steps are described in the Dotter repository: https://github.com/simoncozens/Dotter
