Even with the old .pff font format the whole unicode was possible but it was just slow IIRC. At least it was slow with first version of .pf2 or grub-mkfont. The .pf2 format itself is bitmap but see below. As input for grub-mkfont they can be TTF.
that's great, does the font have to be monospaced (or dual-width for CJK)? what code point range you want this CJK font file to provide? CJK glyphs only?
As input format for grub-mkconf we support everything libfreetype supports, so TTF too.
I guess you meant grub-mkfont. If that's the case, i.e. grub can handle gray-scale bitmaps, then, use grub-mkconf to convert WenQuanYi Micro Hei (Mono) will be my second recommendation next to the wqy bitmap song solution. If grub happens to use fontconfig to handle fallback relationship, you do need to be aware about this bug, as fontconfig does not have everything to handle sfnt ttf format: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23336 _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
