OpenBaybayin

OpenBaybayin is a font primarily made to accompany my Unicode proposal, The baybayin “ra”—ᜍ: its origins and a plea for its formal recognition.

Font information

This font most closely conforms to Norman de los Santos' version of baybayin. I included many forms of “ra”; the generic form is at U+170D and the Zambales form is available if Historical Forms (hist) is enabled. The others are in the Private Usea Area.

Also included:

  • An alternate x shaped virama
  • A padalawa (U+E000) and a pahantig (U+E002)
  • A pallawa (U+1A1E)
  • A pamudpod (U+1734)
  • An alternate hollow kudlit can be attained in compliant programs by using U+FE00, VARIATION SELECTOR-1.
  • A danda (U+1735) and double danda (U+1736) are available if you want to use baybayin punctuation when writing baybayin texts.

Rules for the usage of all of the above can be found on Norman de los Santos' blog, in the articles Modern Baybáyin Chart and Worth Repeating

Note: Font is based somewhat on Noto Sans Tagalog. "All Noto fonts are published under the SIL Open Font License, Version 1.1." per https://www.google.com/get/noto/ , this font is under the same license.
