I am looking for fonts which i can use to set Middle Egyptian (basically 
= Ancient Egyptian) either in hieroglyphic, hieratic or demotic
characters.
Before I go ahead and start coding up between 800 and 3000 glyhps in
METAFONT
I thought I'd ask out here. Does anybody know of any  fonts of these 
types which are already available in Type 1 or MF format. Commercial, 
shareware, or freeware, I don't mind.
