My first reply in this thread now works... and the question still stands.

I tested the LM font, and I noticed a few encoding differences.

Interesting. I just ran the font through a tool to convert it into a webfont. If can provide me with a better one I'll gladly update it.

Newcomers? Well, I know I've only been here for a year or so, but that's pretty darned obscure

DniScript LM2 could do?

[Reveal] Spoiler: changes

\ { } | = + in the same positions as Dnifont
Numerals are flat, not superpositions of two or more glyphs
Font name without the apostrophe, which can interfere with CSS

Fixed

This forum is going to become so much more obscure for newcomers :lol:

You can always ask Hannah to create a new D'ni language sub-forum here, along with all the other non-English ones. :mrgreen:

If only we knew enough D'ni to talk about things...

Also, I'd like there to still be a point to having the Guild of Linguists' site if a D'nu subforum were made. I've invested too much to let it become obsolete.

The D'ni Script LM font is geared towards British keyboards, while Dnifont is geared towards American keyboards. So if any LM font is added, I'd personally rather one that's more logical on my own keyboard. Or we could have both...

What about something completely different?

(DniNTS.PC.US.002.zip – EDIT: and DniNTS.Mac.US.002.zip)

The DLF forum did have a D’ni only section. Perhaps one could be opened in the GoL forum too?
At least geltavO xo mistirEum (Geltahvoy tso Mistireeum) should be kept for posterity.

Maybe, and maybe. It definitely would encourage use of the DLRP...

Thank you OHB for this addition, I installed it at our Boards a few days ago.
I had to DL the fonts and install them directly on our server to fix the FF/IE issue and it works fine!

Hmm, the fonts don't seem to work for me on Firefox in Linux.

I don't know whether this is your problem or not, but I found that the NoScript extension blocks @font-face by default and I had to change that setting to view the font.

This has slowed the rate at which I read D'ni significantly.

I am not running NoScript... maybe some other diffence, maybe I should compare my Windows/Linux settings.

Try it now. The files didn't originally have the Origin header set. I've just invalidated the cache so within say 15 minutes it should be good. If it still isn't working, let me know and I'll figure it out.

WOW! It works! Thanks OHB!
