New Gardiner True-Type hieroglyph font

Thanks to Mark-Jan Nederhof for letting the Ancient Egyptian Language list know that as all the hieroglyphic fonts of which he is aware of have problems, he has decided to create his own. As far as he knows, this is the first non-commercial font that completely covers the 1071 signs from the Unicode proposal.

I downloaded this and installed it on my Mac. In Font Book the font is blank. I am a computer programmer but I cannot make this version work. I am looking forward to seeing this fixed.
