OCR fonts incomplete

Postby CaryChu(Legacy Member) on Thu Apr 27, 2006 7:12 pm

The OCR fonts seem to be missing several characters from the ISO spec. OCR-A is missing Group Erase character. OCR-B is missing all of the international characters including pound sign specified in the ISO 1073/II standards

Carychu,

All the character drawings are listed at http://www.morovia.com/font/ocr.asp.

OCR-B fonts currently implement only level I characters.

We have the group erase character implemented in OCR-A, but it is mapped to a control character and can not be accessed by normal programs.

We'll correct them in the future version.

Is there an expected date for the next release with these characters?

We currently have no plan to add European characters to OCR-B fonts.

If all you need is the group erase character in OCR-A fonts, write to support@morovia.com with your order number to request a patch.
