Junicode is an advanced Unicode font for medieval scholars, including the full range of characters for languages written in the Latin script. It also mostly implements the recommendation of the Medieval Unicode Font Initiative (MUFI).

The following languages are fully supported: Old and Middle English, Old Icelandic, Runic, Latin, Gothic and Sanskrit transliterations, IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) and Greek (based on the Greek Double Pica cut by Alexander Wilson of Glasgow in the eighteenth century).

Junicode supports the following OpenType features: f and long-s ligatures, contextual and stylistic alternates (calt, salt), horizontal kerning (kern), discretionary ligatures (circled numbers and letters via dlig), MUFI historical ligatures (hlig), glyph (de)composition (ccmp), correct positioning of combining marks -- mark-to-base (mark) and mark-to-mark (mkmk), small caps (smcp and c2sc), old-style figures (onum), super- and subscript numbers (sups and subs), Unicode fractions (frac), swashes (swsh) and mirrored runes (rtlm).

Junicode's OpenType style sets provide support for Nordic and Insular letter-forms, Old English typography, enlarged minuscules, E caudata, alternate yogh, MUFI's overlined/deleted characters and many more.
