This repository documents changes to Unifont, used by Minecraft as of version 1.19.4.
This project exists only for documentation purposes. Issues related to this font in the game should still be reported on https://bugs.mojang.com.
Also please note that this is a very old version of Unifont, so there is not much point in using this in any new project.
Unifont is bundled with the game as a series of images named /assets/minecraft/textures/font/unicode_page_*.png, together with a generated file /assets/minecraft/font/glyph_sizes.bin.
In the game, it is used as a fallback for glyphs missing from default font and as a seperate font with identifier minecraft:uniform.
Users can force UI to use Unifont glyphs exclusively by enabling option "Force Unicode Font" in language options.
No part of original package (including hex files) was used by the game directly.
This repository tries to re-create changes to source based on changes to images.
Files were first included in snapshot 11w49a and were based on work of Ryan 'Scaevolus' Hitchman.
