Re: fonts (fwd)
OK, this letter came through three times; I'd better answer it... someone
else may have already, I'm behind on my email.

The Web page/ftp server has two fonts available for download, both in
METAFONT format. One is the older orthography from an earlier book
(whichever it was), which does not map to Klingon sounds. The other is a
version of the newer, "Okuda" script which has been mapped to the sounds of
Klingon, though I don't know by whom (see
/kli/pIqaD.html for explanation) which I coded in
METAFONT.
The KLI sells floppy disks with a TrueType version of the Okuda
orthography; contact Dr. Schoen ([email protected]) for details.
