Many thanks.  (We kould all use more kash...)  Yes, the font was made with
High Logic's Font Creator Program, parts of which were beyond my
understanding, but it works anyhow.  It even types quite nicely...but I'm
waiting to hear from the industrious soul who finds the typos (to my
knowledge, one in each Kash text, not fixed yet).

Perhaps.  Though some of them are better than others, even on my own screen.
I don't know why; they all went thru the same scanner etc...

Not sure I understand:  there are (or _should be_) links to each section at
the bottom of the Contents page-- or do you mean a more complete
description?

BTW I looked at your Tasratal site, and love that script.  I can't imagine
how a font could be made for it, but if they can do it for Hangul and
Devanagari it must be possible.  A different character for every possible CV
and CVC combination??
