=== Task 111451: Bitmap fonts for CJK Unified Ideographs =

Project: WenQuanYi
Subproject: Bitmap Chinese Project
Summary: Bitmap fonts for CJK Unified Ideographs
Complete: 30%
Status: Open
Authority : fangq
Assigned to: fangq

Description: There are 20902 CJK code points between Unicode U+4E00 and U+9FA5, for each character, bitmaps at four sizes should be complete: 9pt(11X11), 10pt(12X12),11pt(14X14) and 12pt(16X16). Given all available open-source bitmap Chinese fonts (firefly-new-sung, redflag yan huang Chinese platform), there are about 5455 characters at 3 sizes are still missing (makes 16365 bitmap in total)

=== Task 111460: Hand draw CJK Extension A missing characters =

Project: WenQuanYi
Subproject: Bitmap Chinese Project
Summary: Hand draw CJK Extension A missing characters
Complete: 0%
Status: Open
Authority : fangq
Assigned to: nobody

Description: There are 6582 characters in CJK Unified Ideographs Extension A. Among them, many characters do not have open content glyphs available. We can not build our new font based on commertial font covering CJK Ext. A, therefore, we must create these missing glyphs by ourselves.

Here is the plan: we will first create a list for all missing characters within CJK Ext. A, then, we need someone to handwrite these characters based on the published sample documents at Unicode.org. The handwritten characters will be scanned and subsequently segmented into small images and added into our database. These images will become the fundation for any further development of this project in CJK Ext A zone.

The missing code points will be announced at our website, if anyone is interested in handwritting these characters, please send an email to qianqian.fang@dartmouth.edu.

=== Task 111461 : Hand draw CJK Extension B missing characters =

Project: WenQuanYi
Subproject: Bitmap Chinese Project
Summary: Hand draw CJK Extension B missing characters
Complete: 0%
Status: Open
Authority : fangq
Assigned to: nobody

Description: This is similar to the task ID: 111460 (Hand draw CJK Extension A missing characters), however, we need someone to work within the range of CJK Unified Ideographs Extension B (42,711 character in total).

The missing character is about thousands. We will publish the missing code points at our website soon. Interested contributor may write an email to qianqian.fang@dartmouth.edu .

=== Task 111462 : Bitmap fonts for CJK Unified Ideographs Ext. A (=>GB18030) =

Project: WenQuanYi
Subproject: Bitmap Chinese Project
Summary: Bitmap fonts for CJK Unified Ideographs Ext. A (=>GB18030)
Complete: 0%
Status: Open
Authority : fangq
Assigned to: nobody

Description: Once the handwritten CJK Ext A missing character task is complete, we can then use wiki or offline bitmap software to create bitmap fonts for this unicode block.

The combination of CJK and CJK Ext. A and a little bit extra work will make a nice GB18030 compliant bitmap font which is utterly useful for most linux distributions.

== Vector Chinese Project =
=== Task 111497 : Create high-quality images for all missing characters in CJK =

Project: WenQuanYi
Subproject: Vector Chinese Project
Summary: Create high-quality images for all missing characters in CJK
Complete: 0%
Status: Open
Authority : fangq
Assigned to: fangq

Description: There are about 750 characters between U+4E00~U+9FA5 that I can not find high-resolution open content images that can be used for our development. I (qianqian.fang@dartmouth.edu) am currently using "fontforge" to make up these missing characters based on Arne's Uming.ttf (this work also serves as a subproject of Arne's unifonts project).

Once this is done, we will have a complete set of high-resolution (above 40X40) CJK character images so that we can make outline fonts (True-Type,Type1) by using the stroke information extracted from these images.

Anyone who is interested in joining me to make these missing characters are welcome, please give me an email and I will show you the simple steps for making true-type character wth fontforge.

=== Task 111498 : Stroke analysis based on CJK character images =

Project: WenQuanYi
Subproject: Vector Chinese Project
Summary: Stroke analysis based on CJK character images
Complete: 0%
Status: Open
Authority : fangq
Assigned to: nobody

Description: Character image database as well as stroke analysis frontend will be developed and released to facilitate the extraction of stroke information for each CJK character. Basic character strokes are based on unicode standard and will meke the restoration of font outline easy.

This is an important step toward a high-quality CJK font because the stroke information is not only useful for making a single true-type font, but a series of fonts with various styles. Moreover, the stroke database can serves as a mean of searching and classifing characters. A variety of fun things can be done with this database. However, the most important thing to accomplish this plan is contributors, a lot of them!
