<pre>FWIW, the Wine project re-implemented wingdings font:
<a href="http://source.winehq.org/source/fonts/">http://source.winehq.org/source/fonts/</a>
It is not complete yet.
Wine also support "symbol" encoding, which might be a useful reference for
people want to support "symbol" encoding in other Linux program. BTW, anyone
know if Mac OS support "symbol" encoding?
<a href="http://source.winehq.org/source/dlls/gdi32/freetype.c">http://source.winehq.org/source/dlls/gdi32/freetype.c</a>
For people who want to contribute to open source alternative fonts for
windings/windings2/windings3/webdings, here is a good start:
<a href="http://unicode.org/~asmus/web-wing-ding-ext.pdf">http://unicode.org/~asmus/web-wing-ding-ext.pdf</a>
The above report analysed windings/windings2/webdings and found same/similar
glyphs in unicode standard.
Nowadays more symbol glyphs are added to latest unicode standard, which covers
more windings(n)/webdings glyphs.
We are working on extent the above report base on PCANet:
<a href="http://arxiv.org/abs/1404.3606">http://arxiv.org/abs/1404.3606</a>
Symbola font contains many glyphs which is useful for re-implementing
windings(n)/webdings:
<a href="http://users.teilar.gr/~g1951d/">http://users.teilar.gr/~g1951d/</a>
According to the above page, the license of Symbola is "free for any use".
