+The 'rojud' package (version 1.2) provides a Type-1 Font for the 42 counties of Romania.
+
+I started from an administrative map of the country (a .shp file, from https://gadm.org/); using R (https://www.r-project.org/) and 'sp' package, extracted the counties contours (in geographic coordinates) and projected them to the cartezian plane (by UTM zones); these contours were excesively long, so I used the 'mapshaper' library (https://github.com/mbloch/mapshaper) to simplify them.
+
+With a R program, these simplified contours were transformed in PS procedures for producing the glyphs; then I collected and adapted these procedures in a "Type1"-format raw file, transformed in final in the '.pfb' font-file by using the 't1asm' program (https://ctan.org/pkg/t1utils).

+\maketitle
+
+\begin{abstract}
+The idea of a font with the "images" of a given set of geographic regions is seeded in the \textsf{CountriesOfEurope} font (see \cite{CoE}), which---as other about 3700 Type-1 fonts in TexLive distribution---is stamped as "\emph{\% Generated by FontForge}". But how one can \emph{construct} a such font? We describe and apply a general procedure for that.
+\end{abstract}
+
+\section{The counties as glyphs}
+
+From \textsf{GADM} (\cite{GADM}) we obtain the administrative map of the country, as a \emph{shapefile} file; this file contain ''polygons'' for each county, which are closed \emph{paths} {\small(speaking as in Postscript)} expressed in geographic coordinates. With a \strong{R} program (\cite{R}), using the \strong{\textsf{sp}} package, we extract the counties contours and project them to cartezian coordinates by \textsf{UTM}\footnote{https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal\_Transverse\_Mercator\_coordinate\_system} {\small(having into account that not all counties maps to the same \textsf{UTM}-zone)}. The respective paths usually contains very many points {\small(and we will have to keep in mind the Postscript \textsf{\emph{limitcheck}} barrier)}; so we use the javaScript \strong{\textsf{mapshaper}} library (\cite{mapshaper}) for to simplify the contours {\small(in the Romania case is sufficient 18\% of the initial vertices)}.
+
+The contours so obtained could be traced or painted in a Ghostscript session, using \texttt{moveto} and \texttt{lineto}; but in the Type-1 font-file we need to use the relative alternative of these, \texttt{rmoveto} and \texttt{rlineto}. So by a \strong{R} program we transform the coordinates matrix of each contour, replacing each line with its difference from the previous one; therewith by this \strong{R} program, we formulate a ''\textsf{.raw}'' file, in which we write these matrixes completed on every line by a "rlineto" word {\small(excepting the first line, where we have "rmoveto", and the last line which is replaced by word "closepath")}.
+
+More precisely, in this ''\textsf{.raw}'' file we obtain, for each county, the needed glyph definition in the terms of the Type-1 format, for example:
+
+{\small
+\begin{verbatim}
+/jAB { % judeţul Alba (Alba county)
+0 1204 hsbw % "horizontal sidebearing and width"
+74881 100 div 4378 100 div rmoveto
+-634 100 div -958 100 div rlineto
+-492 100 div -105 100 div rlineto
+ % etc.
+861 100 div -86 100 div rlineto
+1067 100 div 293 100 div rlineto
+closepath
+endchar
+} ND %% total: 979 rows
+\end{verbatim}
+}
+
+Then we insert in this ''\textsf{.raw}'' file the \texttt{/CharStrings} dictionary definition, the \texttt{/Encoding} definition, etc. -- having at beginning {\small(see \cite{PLRM})}:
+
+{\small
+\begin{verbatim}
+7 dict begin
+/FontType 1 def
+/FontMatrix [0.001 0 0 0.001 0 0] readonly def
+/FontName /rojud def
+/FontBBox {0 0 1776 1375} readonly def
+/PaintType 0 def
+\end{verbatim}
+}
+
+and ending the ''\textsf{.raw}'' file {\small(about 77700 lines)} by:
+
+{\small
+\begin{verbatim}
+end end
+readonly put
+put
+dup/FontName get exch definefont pop
+mark currentfile closefile
+cleartomark
+\end{verbatim}
+}
+
+From this ''\textsf{.raw}'' file we obtain the desired \textsf{.pfb} file, using the \strong{\textsf{t1asm}} program (\cite{t1asm}).
+
+\smallskip
+Using \textsf{pf2afm.ps} from \cite{GS} {\small(or an ''on-line converter'')} we obtain the corresponding metric file ''\textsf{.afm}'', from which using \textsf{afm2pl} and \textsf{pltotf}, we obtain the needed for TeX metric file ''\textsf{.tfm}''. For the package definition of the new font what else is needed is to add the ''\textsf{.fd}'' and ''\textsf{.sty}'' files; of course, these files {\small(\texttt{.pfb}, \texttt{.tfm}, \texttt{.map}, \texttt{.fd} and \texttt{.sty})} must be incorporated in the appropriate places of the TeXLive directory structure.
+
+\smallskip
+Actually we add two minimal ''\textsf{.fd}'' files, ''\texttt{TUrojud.fd}'' for \textsf{xelatex} and ''\texttt{OT1rojud.fd}'' for \textsf{pdflatex}; in the ''\textsf{.sty}'' file we separate by these cases the symbol declarations and we add a single new command, ''\texttt{\textbackslash{}paintt}'', which use the \texttt{\textbackslash{}special} TeX primitive for to paint the glyph in the PDF ''\emph{FillAndStroke}'' rendering mode {\small(but fixing the colours, at a perhaps decent level)}.
+
+\section{Tests (simple examples)}
+
+We don't see a practical use for such a font, whose glyphs shape some geographical regions\ldots{} the interesting issue is their very definition in the font file, described above.
+
+\smallskip
+But for simple tests or some examples, consider in the preamble of a LaTeX file \texttt{usepackage\{rojud\}} and let's say, these simplifying commands:
+
+{\small
+\begin{verbatim}
+ \newcommand{\setFont}[1]{\fontfamily{#1}\selectfont}
+ \newcommand\Sj[1]{\setFont{rojud}\Huge\paintt{#1}}
+ \newcommand\Sn[1]{\footnotesize\texttt{#1}}
+\end{verbatim}
+}
+
+It is easy to write a litle Python script to generate a TeX file "rows.tex", giving the rows and columns {\small(with cells \texttt{\textbackslash{}Sj} and \texttt{\textbackslash{}Sn}, applied to glyphs)} of a \texttt{\textbackslash{}tabular} environment; then \texttt{\textbackslash{}include rows.tex} in this environment of the initial LaTeX file {\small(see the TeX source of this document)}, to present the glyphs as follows:
+
+{\centerline{Fontul \textbf{rojud} {\small(judeţele României)}}}
+\fbox{
+\begin{tabular}{*{7}{c}}
+ \input{rows.tex}
+\end{tabular}
+}
+
+\bigskip
+Repeating \verb!{\fbox{\paintt{\symbol{\value{N}}}}}!, with \texttt{N} from 167 to 208 {\small(the codes from the \texttt{/Encoding} table of the font)} we could produce the glyphs engraved in his bounding boxes {\small(here with \verb!\huge!)}:
+
+\smallskip
+{
+\setFont{rojud}
+\fboxsep=0pt
+\newcounter{N}
+\setcounter{N}{167}
+\huge\noindent
+\whiledo{\value{N}<181}{%
+ \fbox{\paintt{\symbol{\value{N}}}}%
+ \stepcounter{N}}%
+\par\smallskip\noindent
+\whiledo{\value{N}<195}{%
+ \fbox{\paintt{\symbol{\value{N}}}}%
+ \stepcounter{N}}%
+\par\smallskip\noindent
+\whiledo{\value{N}<209}{%
+ \fbox{\paintt{\symbol{\value{N}}}}%
+ \stepcounter{N}}%
+}
+
+\medskip
+Lastly, we produce a litle paragraph of text---in romanian language, at \verb!\small!, \verb!\normalsize! and \verb!\large!---integrating a few glyphs:
+
+\renewcommand\Sj[1]{{\fontfamily{rojud}\selectfont\paintt{#1}}}
+
+\smallskip
+{\small
+,,\paintt{Judeţul Iaşi} \Sj{\jIS} se învecinează cu judeţele Botoşani \Sj{\jBT} spre nord, Suceava \Sj{\jSV} spre nord-vest, Neamţ \Sj{\jNT} spre vest şi cu Vaslui \Sj{\jVS} spre sud.''}
+
+\smallskip
+{\normalsize
+,,\paintt{Judeţul Iaşi} \Sj{\jIS} se învecinează cu judeţele Botoşani \Sj{\jBT} spre nord, Suceava \Sj{\jSV} spre nord-vest, Neamţ \Sj{\jNT} spre vest şi cu Vaslui \Sj{\jVS} spre sud.''}
+
+\smallskip
+{\large
+,,\paintt{Judeţul Iaşi} \Sj{\jIS} se învecinează cu judeţele Botoşani \Sj{\jBT} spre nord, Suceava \Sj{\jSV} spre nord-vest, Neamţ \Sj{\jNT} spre vest ...''}
+
+\smallskip
+\renewcommand\Sj[1]{{\setFont{rojud}{#1}}}
+{\noindent\normalsize
+,,\emph{The neighboring counties with \Sj{\jIS} are: \Sj{\jBT}, \Sj{\jSV}, \Sj{\jNT} and \Sj{\jVS}.}''}
+
+\medskip
+We must note here that in the bounding boxes of the county glyphs we did not leave the usual extra horizontal space {\small(to separate two neighboring glyphs)}; usually these irregular glyphs will appear in a text interspersed with characters of an another font {\small(an not as neighbors)}. \\
+Also note that (implicitly by the above construction) the county glyphs respects {\small(as possible)} the cartographic proportions of the counties.
