Font Industry (字体工业)
makes big charset font creation easier. The
program converts a scanned in grid sheet,
containing a lot of glyphs, into a bitmap font.
The glyphs will be automatically indexed by
Unicode or with a user-selected charset order. The
bitmap font can then be converted to an outline
font like TTF or OpenType font.

mknfonts doesn't completely automate the process
of creating nfont packages, but it can do most of

.pfb, .afm, and most formats for which FreeType
can handle and provide PostScript names.

Alphabet Soup is a project which attempts to determine a number of things about the shapes of letters in several different writing systems. First, it hypothesizes a set of basic building blocks that all letters are built up from. Second, it hypothesizes a set of rules, a grammar or syntax, which defines how those pieces combine to make different letters. It can generate individual letters, randomize letters in an input string to create weird but readable text, or generate random strings of symbols.

gbdfed is a GTK+-based BDF font editor. Multiple
fonts can be loaded from the command line.
Multiple fonts can be open at the same time.

chessdgm.rb converts a standard chess postion file

documentation, and are free for non-commercial
use, but not GPL.

Fluxfont is a specialized tool that attempts to tackle the privacy concerns raised by the possibility to collect information about the fonts installed on a system.
