The Epi-Olmec script in the digital era
The Epi-Olmec script is a Mesoamerican script that was used by the Olmec
people. The script is basically a syllabary that employs logograms. More
information about the script can be found in the
Epi-Olmec
section of ancientscripts.com.
Using all the available resources, we created a PostScript Type 1 font
that can be used to recreate Epi-Olmec texts using modern technology.
The font can be freely downloaded and it may be distributed and/or modified
under the conditions of the LaTeX Project Public License, either version 1.2
of this license or (at your option) any later version. The latest version of
this license is in

The following table shows all the characters that we have digitized so far.
We have taken extremely care to digitize all characters, but it is possible
that we have not included some characters. If the kind reader believes that
there is such a character, then the reader should contact the creator of
the font at :
apostotolo at ocean1 dot ee dot duth dot gr.
Note that a high resolution table is also
available.
