But as you can see from the verbose output, because of these warnings, it
produces only 95 glyphs as opposed to the expected 128.
The codepoint ranges 0-0x1f and 0x7f are controls and have no glyph. Do
you have the comparison of glyphs in questions? What glitches do you see?
As for the quality, it is much lower than the fonts produced by earlier
versions.

Whenever you grub-mkfont is used to convert truetype fonts to PFF2 fonts, it
generates several errors. For example:
grub-mkfont -v -s 12 -r 0x0-0x7F -o ~/Documents/dejavu-sans-12.pf2
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSans.ttf
gives the following error:
It's not errors. Just warnings that the resulting pf2 will be of lesser quality
than source TTF
This is a long-standing issue with grub-mkfont that started somewhere in the
later releases of 1.98. This never occurred in earlier releaes of 1.98.
The earlier versions just ignored the features altogether. Newer report them
but it's *warnings*, not errors.
