Great!
This will enhance LibreCAD fonts a lot :-)

- Interresting.  So now, we can forget "romans2.cxf" and "romans2.lff",
   and use "romans.lff".

- Wondering if I can use your "romans.lff" as replacement for
   "simplex(-1).lff".
   I will take a look at that.

- By the way, I had no time to add accents on "simplex(-1).lff" :-(

- After doing some functional tests on all ".lff" fonts I was aware
   of, I think the ".lff" font format is mostly usable.
