It may be a silly question, but could someone used to calligraphy explain how they were made?
I should think that with a quill any attempt to "dab" the nib would have created a larger ink blot.
Are we sure we're not just looking at some sort of strange ink blot?

In which case, for what reason?

I'm not aware of any font that includes all UCS codes. The forum defaults to Arial IIRC, which of course is limited to Roman alphanumeric characters and variants.
If anyone comes across a medieval web font, it would be fun to include it here.
Although this post is clearly offtopic and should contribute in the technical forum! *Slaps own wrist
