Kryptonian 6

Version 6.2.4 :: This is my own font used throughout this site to support the Kryptonian language. This is not a transliteration font (see below for that) so there is not necessarily any correspondance between the Roman character typed and the Kryptonian symbol output. So, while lower-case 's' = 's', upper-case 'S' = 'S' which represent different sounds in Kryptonian.

Font Note

Please note that the Roman font structure is somewhat inadequate to properly display all of the intricacies of the Kryptonian orthography—mostly because of spacing issues. However, this is what we're stuck with (unless Unicode wants to adopt Kryptonian into the standards... not that I would even know how to go about with that process, and they have much better things to do with their resources, anyway—like getting all the writing systems on this planet supported.)

Doulos SIL

Free unicode font (used for displaying IPA—International Phonetic Alphabet) from SIL International.

Other Fonts

Kryptonian (Comics)

This is the transliteration font you will find in the comic book. It shares a one-to-one correspondance with the 26 basic letters of the Roman alphabet (with no distinction between upper and lower cases). When DC wants to portray "Kryptonian", they display the character's dialog—written in the language of the publication (e.g., English, Spanish, French, etc.)—using this font. Kind of like if you typed a letter and then changed the font to Wingdings before printing.

Interlac Hollow

Made famous in the Legion of Superheroes comic book. It was also featured pretty extensively on the animated TV show of the same name. The Wikipedia entry on Interlac states: "In the DC Comics fictional universe, Interlac is the designated communication language of the 30th century United Planets."
