-Babelstone Khitan Large scropt PUA fonts:
-
-it is an experimental font containing 1,469 Khitan
-Large Script glyphs, mapped to the PUA at E000..E5BC.

-The glyphs are not ordered in the font,
-but have been added sequentially as I encounter
-each new character form. In addition, very many of the
-glyphs are variant forms of the same character,
-often trivial variants.
-
-Babelstone Khitan small script fonts:

-
-Babelstone Tangut Scan Fonts:
-
-These are a set of fonts covering Tangut glyphs from
-various sources, mapped to the PUA. The fonts were created
-from scanned images of the source glyphs, and the quality
-of the resultant font glyphs is generally quite poor. These fonts
-are not intended for use in typesetting Tangut text, but were
-created in order to facilitate mapping of Tangut characters
-between sources.
-
-BabelStone Tangut Wenhai Font:
-
-BabelStone Tangut Wenhai is a Unicode Tangut font covering
-3,061 of the 6,125 Tangut ideographs encoded in Unicode version 9.0

-Sea of Writing [Wénhǎi 文海] text in
-Wénhǎi Yánjiū 文海研究 [Study of the Sea of Writing] (Beijing, 1983) by
-Shi Bojin 史金波 et al. This font also includes 442 of the 755
-encoded Tangut components, but these are poorer quality compared with
-the Tangut ideographs, and may be replaced with glyphs derived from the
-Tangut ideographs in the future.
-NB This font does not cover many common Tangut characters,
-and so is not suitable for use in typesetting Tangut text in academic works.
-
-Tangut Yinchuan Font:

-Sani Yi script in Unicode.
