The site is mangaged by TRi staff; from time to time MetaGlyfix assists with ”cleaning up” the sight.

miscellaneous digital graphics in support of any of the above
A vector drawing for a recently published scholarly monograph. It came about because of a common circumstance, where an author had a drawing he had used in the past, however:
- the drawing needed a few corrections or updates
- text would not be clearly legible at reproduction size
- the drawing was not of a quality that would reproduce to the standards of the new publication nor was it stylistically compatible with the monograph
While the original drawing could have been digitally touched up, by far the better and least expensive solution was to make a new vector drawing. This drawing incorporates technical illustration with typography; custom glyphs are incorporated in the font.
Four sample original graphics (of many) to illustrate a coroprate report
index compilations, concordances
Generation of a concordance (as an index) from word and phrase lists supplied by the author or from proper names compiled by MetaGlyfix for the Yale University Southeast Asia Studies monograph series (see above) volumes #42 (Francis T. Seow), #46 (Robert L. Winzler), #47 (Ann Maxwell Hill), 48 (Gene Ammarell), and #49 (Maung Maung).
(Note: Incorporating a concordance by MetaGlyfix can be an economical way for a scholar or publisher to add a useful index to a publication. It can be produced more quickly than one created conventionally by a professional indexer. The concordance usually requires only a minimal amount of editing by the author or editor before it is ready to be typeset.)
