I think it's a great idea. Some resources on fonts and languages that
may be useful:
- The LaTeX Font Catalogue (https://tug.org/FontCatalogue/) is pretty
complete and includes a lot of high quality fonts, with coverage for
many languages. The fonts are from diverse origins, for example the
excellent fonts for Greek and Latin alphabets from the Greek Font
Society, the TeX Gyre project fonts, etc.
- To get quick information from an otf font (otf features, Unicode
ranges, scripts, glyphs, etc.) otfinfo is very useful
(https://man.archlinux.org/man/otfinfo.1.en). But the more powerful
tool in this regard is fontforge (https://fontforge.org/en-US/), which
is not only a complete professional font editor (and free as in
freedom) but can also be used by everyone to audit all aspects from a
font: glyphs, metadata, otf features, languages, scripts, ranges, etc.
- There are specialized fonts in a wide coverage of ranges and scripts,
but many are low-quality or proprietary. Google's Noto Fonts ensure at
least a reasonably complete coverage: I use them only for experiments
(or for ensure certain "rare" scripts in Emacs buffers, as Linear B or
Gothic), but they can also be used within a document.
- Finally, in case anyone is interested, I also wrote for my personal
use a Helm source to list all system font families and insert the
family name into a LaTeX document with the syntax of fontspec or Babel
("\babelfont", which is a frontend for fontspec).
Best regards,
Juan Manuel
