Glyphs and Writing Systems

• Syllabary: Here is a font that is designed for writing a syllabary. This is a sample of the font (PDF file) and the actual font can be downloaded here.
• Slices A font that slices up Roman bloack capitals into three vertical slices which can then be reassembled to make hundreds of new Roman-like letters.
• Neoglyphic (formerly neo-cuneiform) a language and writing system designed to be pressed or stamped into wet clay or stamped on metal sheets. Possibly as a means of communicating with the distant future when no trace reamains of English.
• Neoglyphic 2.0 After working with Neoglyphic (above) I decided on a number of improvements and refinements. In particular, the font has been redesigned so that rather than a mere 30,761 possible glyphs, there are now at least 4,503,599,627,370,496 possible glyphs. Also, the font is easier to use now.

• Fragmentz A font for creating pictographic symbols
• Picto A simple pictographic language using the Fragmentz font.
• Tinker Font multi-purpose font for displaying and printing any kind of writing system
