Hi, I have managed to prepare a version of the half-width katakana using the pfb versions of the Wadalab fonts rather than TTF conversions. They do seem to look better. The only tricky thing was to realize that I could apply the subfonts.pe script to the Fontforge .sfd file (before I was stumped that I could not "create" pfb fonts since the encoding only allows 256 characters). The .pfb, .tfm, .map and .fd files are available to be included in CJK (Debian pacakge also?). What do you think?
