- ttf-unifont: TrueType version of GNU Unifont
This contains four fonts: "Unifont", "Unifont Upper", "Unifont CSUR",
and "Unifont Sample".
.
unifont.ttf is a bitmap font converted into a scalable TrueType
outline font, Unifont. Each pixel in the original bitmap font
is represented as an outlined square. The font provides a glyph
for each visible code point (character) in the Unicode Basic
Multilingual Plane (BMP, or Plane 0). The BMP contains most of
the world's modern writing scripts. This font looks best at 12pt.
.
unifont_upper.ttf is a bitmap font converted into a scalable TrueType
outline font that covers Unicode ranges above Plane 0. Most of its
glyphs are in Plane 1, the Unicode Supplemental Multilingual Plane (SMP).
.
unifont_csur.ttf is a bitmap font converted into a scalable TrueType
outline font that contains some scripts in the ConScript Unicode
Registry (CSUR). These scripts are not part of the Unicode Standard,
but are a popular use for the Private Use Area (PUA). This font
contains glyphs in Plane 0 and in the higher PUA planes.
.
unifont_sample.ttf is an SBIT font that contains combining circles
and is therefore suitable for illustrating individual Unicode glyphs.
The other font files do not contain combining circles and so are suitable
for general-purpose writing.
.
Complex fonts (such as Indic or Semitic scripts, where letters change
shape depending on their position in a word, or such as Mongolian, which
can be written vertically) will not render perfectly. The philosophy
behind this font, though, is that anything meaningful is better than
an empty box for an unknown glyph.

- xfonts-unifont: PCF (bitmap) version of GNU Unifont
This contains three fonts: "Unifont" (unifont.pcf.gz),
"Unifont CSUR" (unifont_csur.pcf. gz), and
"Unifont Sample" (unifont_sample. pcf.gz) .
.
This is a bitmap version of Unifont in a standard X11 format.
The fonts provide a glyph for each visible code point (character)
in the Unicode Basic Multilingual Plane (BMP, or Plane 0). The BMP
contains most of the world's modern writing scripts. These fonts
look best at 12pt.
.
unifont.pcf.gz contains Unicode Plane 0 glyphs. This is the main font.
.
unifont_sample. pcf.gz contains combining circles for combining characters.
Thus it is suited for illustrating individual Unicode glyphs, whereas
Unifont is intended for general-purpose writing.
.
unifont_csur.pcf. gz contains some scripts in the Plane 0 ConScript
Unicode Registry (CSUR). These scripts are not part of the Unicode
Standard, but are a popular use for the Private Use Area (PUA).
.
Complex fonts (such as Indic or Semitic scripts, where letters change
shape depending on their position in a word, or such as Mongolian, which
can be written vertically) will not render perfectly. The philosophy
behind this font, though, is that anything meaningful is better than
an empty box for an unknown glyph.
.
Consider using the TrueType version instead (ttf-unifont), because
that version is scalable to any point size and has proper combining
character support.
