 Astraware Glyph Review
Glyph is a stone matching game where the simple rules of play are to match three or more colored stones, and then tap them with your stylus to remove them.
The goal is to complete the puzzles by on one end removing the stones to unlock the glyph, and then on some levels doing a "Simon-like" music and picture segment where it plays a series of tones and you have to repeat it.
Glyph is available from the Astraware web site for both Palm OS and Windows Mobile handhelds and smartphones.

 The Glyph Substitution Table
To move to the "next" glyph, the client will typically skip all the glyphs that participated in the lookup operation: glyphs that were substituted as well as any other glyphs that formed a context for the operation.
For example, if a client is to replace the glyph string with its reverse glyph string , the input context is defined as the glyph sequence, , and the lookups defined for the context are (1) "a" to "c" and (2) "c" to "a".
Glyph alternatives are selected depending upon the height of the base glyph that they combine with-that is, the mark glyph used above a high base glyph differs from the mark glyph above a very high base glyph.

glyph is a Windows program which allows you to choose a font and enter some text, and then it will produce parameter data that can be used with Ultra Fractal (UF).
glyph can only convert a font that is installed on your computer, but once the characters are converted, they can be rendered by anyone who has the glyph rendering formula (which is available from the UF formula database).
The glyph program is just a converter that reads font curve data and writes out the coordinates of all those curve segments for you (and positions the characters for you as well).

In addition, if a glyph nested in a parent glyph extends beyond the parent, the visual representation of the child will be clipped.

 Glyph Hard Drive
A glyph is a carved figure or character, incised or in relief; a carved pictograph; hence, a pictograph representing aform originally adopted for sculpture, whether carved or painted.
The actual glyphs intypography were originally the carved and cast characters of a font.
In the simple case, for a given font (typeface and size), each character corresponds to a single glyph but this is not alwaysthe case, especially in a language with a large alphabet where one character may correspond to several glyphs or severalcharacters to one glyph (a character encoding).

 FreeType Glyph Conventions
As one can see, the glyphs of the Courier family are smaller than those of Times New Roman, which themselves are slightly smaller than those of Arial, even though everything is displayed or printed at a size of 16 points.
Each glyph is thus made of both an outline and a control program to perform the actual grid-fitting in the way defined by the font designer.
The Type 1 format takes a much simpler approach: Each glyph is made of an outline as well as several pieces called hints which are used to describe some important features of the glyph, like the presence of stems, some width regularities, and the like.

 Glyph: Annotations and Utilities for Jini   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Glyph makes the creation of Jini services much easier than the default tools do, by providing a simple @Service annotation that marks an implementation as an exported Jini service.
Glyph's annotations, by automating some of the grunt-work associated with publishing services, may help change that somewhat.
My hope with Glyph is that we can mitigate some of that by helping developers with some of this heavy scaffolding.

 Glyph & Cog: Text Extraction   (Site not responding. Last check: )
A font is a collection of glyphs - Times-Roman, Helvetica, and Courier each have their own glyph for the letter 'A', for example.
A PDF text extractor converts the code to glyph names, using the font encoding, and then converts to the glyph names to whatever output encoding was requested (ASCII, UTF-8, etc.).
For example, the glyph names often contain the original character codes: the ASCII code for 'T' is 84, and the font subset might use 'p84' as the glyph name for this character.

A special border around the colored dot (see the red dot at the 'x') indicates that the glyph itself is not directly available (there is no mapping information) in the font file.
Empty glyphs (the 'y' and the 'braceleft') will show a sample character based on the first valid Microsoft mapping.
Each cell has a caption that is used to display the postscript name, the mappings or the index of the glyphs.
