# Rawnd Musmus Duployan

An OpenType Unicode font for Duployan shorthand.

Duployan is a shorthand used for French, English, Romanian, Chinook Jargon, and

many other languages. Rawnd Musmus Duployan is a technical proof of concept for

all of Duployan’s features that is also suitable for practical use.

## Installation

Download [the latest version](

https://github.com/dscorbett/duployan-font/releases/tag/RawndMusmusDuployan-v1.0.0).

You can also download a development build from the latest [workflow run](

https://github.com/dscorbett/duployan-font/actions).

[The font demo](https://dscorbett.github.io/duployan-test/) is an online

keyboard app that lets you type in Duployan. It is useful for testing the font

without installing it locally and for use as a Duployan IME.

The third-party article [“How to get the Chinuk Pipa font”](

https://kaltashwawa.ca/2021/12/26/how-to-get-the-chinuk-pipa-font/) has further

advice about installing the font that might be helpful.

## Features

Rawnd Musmus Duployan has full support for Unicode Duployan:

* All characters in the Duployan and Shorthand Format Controls blocks

* Contextual forms and cursive joining

* Shaded characters

* Overlapping characters

* Non-Duployan characters used with Duployan, such as digits and punctuation

There are [multiple variants](docs/variants.md) of the font, including:

* Rawnd Musmus Duployan: the main font

* Rawnd Musmus Duployan Uncow: the font with cursive joining removed

* Noto Sans Duployan: the font with modifications for the Noto font project

See [the user guide](docs/user-documentation.md) for more information.

## Building

See [the developer documentation](docs/developer-documentation.md) for how to

build the fonts from source.
