چکیده
The aim of this note is to inform the interested reader about the possibility of obtaining several new fonts: Croatian Glagolitic (round – sometimes called Bulgarian glagolitic, angular, Baška tablet, cursive, ligatures, the Baromić broken ligatures, calligraphic), Croatian Cyrillic, stećak ornaments and Croatian wattle patterns. They represent a considerable extension of the first version of Glagolitic fonts I created in 1992 (see [2]). Bearing in mind that the Croatian Glagolitic script has a long history of at least 11 centuries (from the 9th to the 20th), it is not surprising that there exists a large variety of handwritten and printed versions. The author has created several major fonts of type using this script.
