BabelStone Khitan Small Seal is a Unicode font for the thirty-six seal script style Khitan small script characters which are engraved on the covers for the eulogies for Emperor Daozong and Empress Xuanyi (photograph of the Eulogy for Empress Xuanyi). In the current version of the font, the glyphs have been mechanically scanned from the rubbings of the inscripotions, and so are rather rough. When I have time I hope to replace the glyphs with my own hand-designed versions.
Rubbing of the Cover of the Eulogy for Emperor Daozong 道宗皇帝哀册
Rubbing of the Cover of the Eulogy for Empress Xuanyi 宣懿皇后哀册
Note, the font includes only 36 glyphs, but these are mapped to 38 characters as two of the seal script characters are variously identified as two different regular script characters by some scholars: 𘱿 has been identified as 𘰲 but actually representing 𘱿; and 𘰹 has been identified as 𘰹 but actually representing 𘰄.
