Thanks, I'll see to it as soon as I can[edit]

With a calligraphic pen you get inked, while with illustrator you get irked.

Thanks for your very kind words, but it is not great: it is messy and complicated despite being overly simplified —ideally it should have been a template with a table or something. I omitted Insular minuscule as it is a dead end and also the presence of wynn (ƿ) in insular majuscule makes me cringe as majuscule was for Latin and minuscule for old english (although I think one of Ælfric's manuscripts may be OE in majuscule) and ash (æ), thorn (þ) and edh (ð) should have been included according to that logic…David Harris's The art of calligraphy has something similar, so I might double check what he did.

I do not have the illustrator file with me right now, but either for scribal abbreviations or this, I had some trouble and I think this may be one of it. I'll look into it as soon as I can during the week and hopefully improve it. --Squidonius (talk) 00:19, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the really long delay. I fixed the blemishes in the Insular script, but it is still sub-par close up. If you require a better resolution, Insular majuscule or extra letters, such as the above, I am happy to make them or better still pen them (as a pen is always better than illustrator). --Squidonius (talk) 12:13, 17 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
