About
Released in September 2002 by Geezsoft, this face provides complete coverage of the Ethiopic Unicode range (U+1200–U+137F) and the Ethiopic Supplement (U+1380–U+139F), totalling 416 encoded characters alongside basic Latin. It exists as a single regular weight with no italic or condensed variants. The font predates widespread Ethiopic Unicode support and represents an early effort to bring Amharic into standards-compliant digital typography.
Classification
An Ethiopic script font covering the full Unicode ranges for Amharic (U+1200–U+137F and U+1380–U+139F). The Latin sample suggests a basic upright serif style, though the primary purpose is Ethiopic coverage.
