Preview 5 wasn’t actually released but preview 4 was which is identical in all important respects. Grab it from the post at http://damieng.com/blog/2006/12/26/envy-code-r-programming-font-preview-available-for-download

FWIW, I actually prefer the more geometric, quirkier look of version 5 to the admittedly smoother, yet more generic look of v 6. Is a copy of v5 still available?

The plan is to include the entire Windows 1250 Central European and MacOS Central Europe code pages within a Unicode font.

0 and R have been changed as per the suggestions.

I've been fleshing out a number of additional foreign accented characters, symbols and signs in preperation for a release over the weekend.

Very nice, #6 looks to me a lot clearer. Lets hope it displays in java nicely and no odd heights showing up.

It certainly looks better to me than #5

"R" looks unbalanced to me as if the 'leg' should be coming out of the mid point in horizontal stroke or something rather than at the join.

I prefer the v, x, y and z shapes in 6 but the 0 in 5.
