Follow-up Comment #4, bug #40330 (project grub): I am the maintainer of GNU Unifont. I just learned of this bug on Wednesday. I hadn't even had time to look into it further (being on the road for Thanksgiving). Today someone sent me a proposed set of changes for the BDF file to make life easier for FreeType and also grub-mkfont. The changes are to add these properties at a minimum to the unifont.bdf file, before converting to PCF:
PIXEL_SIZE 16 CHARSET_REGISTRY "ISO10646" CHARSET_ENCODING "1" After making those additions, FreeType and grub-mkfont should be able to convert the font properly. Apparently without those extra properties, FreeType makes some assumptions about Unifont that are incorrect and grub-mkfont fails as a result. I'll be able to test this for a new release within 2 weeks, and will have the new release ready a week after that.
