[comp.fonts] Russian Font - Encoding Vector?

colin@gouldnl.encore.nl (Colin Smale) (11/27/90)

I am putting together a Russian Cyrillic font for use in a word-processor
to help me learn Russian.  Cyrillic handwriting is (at the moment anyway)
impossible to write and impossible to decipher!

I have the character definitions and the metrics information working,
so I'm on my way.  What I'm missing is an encoding vector and the
layout of a Russian keyboard, so I can map keyboard keys to a code, and
the code to a glyph.

Can anybody help with either or both?

Replies by email please (csmale@encore.nl) as I don't get to read these
groups too often.

Thanks in advance!
