Unifoundry

The two main utilities convert GNU Unifont .hex files to and from Windows Bitmap (.bmp) and Wireless Bitmap (.wbmp) format files, for easy Unicode glyph pixel editing at the correct aspect ratio with just about any graphics editor. Sample output can be found at the bottom of the web page http://unifoundry.com/unicode-tutorial.html.

The third utility checks for duplicate Unicode code points in a sorted Unifont .hex file to guard against duplicate glyphs when merging updates.

The fourth utility shows the Unicode Basic Multilingual Plane coverage of a GNU Unifont .hex file in a 16 by 16 grid, with each cell representing a block of 256 Unicode code points. Samples of the BMP coverage tables appear at http://unifoundry.com/unicode-utilities.html.
