Extended Character Set #90

Description

@vwildi

Summary

Add missing punctuation, special symbols, and German umlaut characters to the sample form and provide a script that can generate a font from a custom‑layout template (including multi‑page forms).

Motivation

The current sample form does not cover many characters that appear in everyday typography work. Users repeatedly have to edit the form manually, which defeats the purpose of a ready‑made template. In addition, generating a font from a two‑page form is currently undocumented, making the workflow cumbersome for newcomers.

Desired Improvements

Extend the default character set to contain at least the following glyphs:

    # , \ @ $ . % * | ~ < > ä ö ü Ä Ü Ö ß

Why: These symbols are frequently used in UI labels, code snippets, and German‑language texts. Their absence forces users to edit the source files manually.
