Description
This dingbat font contains mainly decorative abstract geometric patterns with five-fold symmetry or quasi-symmetry (over 90 such glyph shapes are included). The font code is licensed under the SIL Open Font License, while the abstract symbol shapes are all in the public domain. The five-fold ornaments are assigned to ASCII characters (basic Latin letters, numerical digits and punctuation) and include spiral designs, interlacings (knotted patterns), labyrinths, various quasi-floral designs (including retro flowers), basic fractals, etc. Simple unelaborated pentagon and pentagram shapes (which can be found in many other fonts) are not included.
Because this font project originated as devising supplemental symbols (and revised versions of a few symbols) for the Discordian dingbat fonts (“Fnord-Hodge” and “Fnord-Podge”) by toa267, a few miscellaneous symbols (which are less symmetrical, or are not five-fold at all, or which have specific reference to the Discordian font) are assigned to the first part of the lower-case alphabet. In accordance with the original toa267 font, all characters fit within a 1000-point by 1000-point box.
The font shape outlines were designed using cubic beziers; an unhinted Truetype file (converted from the original Adobe format) is also included. See the text file in the ZIP archive for further documentation.
NOTE: The new OFL seems to have significant problems; I uploaded a full ZIP file with documentation and alternative file formats, and everything except the raw TTF file was mysteriously deleted without explanation. Attempts to fix things, only made them worse. The software running the site is simply not yet ready for production use, but you can download the full ZIP archive with all relevant files from my personal homepage or through the backdoor of this site at https://svn.openfontlibrary.org/public/openfontlibrary/sprint/000_Pools/OFLBv1/AnonMoos/AnonMoos_-_Five-fold_Ornaments_etc_dingbats.zip
