How do you typeset font characters by their ansi code number, ex. Alt+33
(21h) ?

Thanks Taco.

It didn't work as expected. It outputs exclamation points.

- font: combinumerals ( http://www.fontsite.com/bonusfonts/cnfree_tt.zip )
- font encoding type: symbol
- supported unicode ranges: general punctuation

What's missing here ?

\starttypescript [sans] [combinumerals]
     \definefontsynonym [CombinumeralsRegular]    [name:combinumerals]
                    [features=default]
     \definefontsynonym [CombinumeralsBold]
[name:combinumeralsbold]                [features=default]
\stoptypescript

\starttypescript [sans] [combinumerals]
     \setups [font:fallback:sans]
     \definefontsynonym [sans]                    [CombinumeralsRegular]
     \definefontsynonym [sansBold]            [CombinumeralsBold]
\stoptypescript

\starttypescript [combinumerals]
     \definetypeface [combinumerals] [ss] [sans] [combinumerals] [default]
\stoptypescript

\usetypescript[combinumerals]

\starttext
%\showcharacters

\char 33
\blank
\char "21
\stoptext

OK, fetched the font.

Two changes are needed here

[Sans]       instead of   [sans]
[SansBold]   instead of   [sansBold]

Have to add a font switching command here:

   \switchtobodyfont[combinumerals,ss]

Wonderful !

Is there a (preferably free) Linux or Windows font tool out there which
allows to print a font's characters and corresponding character codes ?

Geeks do it with LuaTeX :)

I'm not sure if this still works since I have no luatex here, but in
theory you can play with something like this:

% do whatever you want with it
\def\mychar#1#2{#1: #2\crlf}

\starttext
\ctxlua{
	fontname = 'texgyrepagella-regular.otf'
	tfmdata = fonts.tfm.read_and_define("file:" .. fontname, 655360)

	w = tfmdata.characters
	for i=0,100000 do
		if w[i] then
			tex.sprint("\\strut\\mychar{" .. i, "}{\\type{", w[i].name, "}}")
		end
	end
}
\stoptext

Hi Hans,

the file s-fnt-10.lua needs to be added to the distribution.
