Crochet Symbol Fonts
Designs for the HTML5 logo and its components are attributed to the W3C.
Most of the icons and UI controls included in the Segoe MDL2 Assets font are mapped to the Private Use Area of Unicode (PUA). The PUA allows font developers to assign private Unicode values to glyphs that don’t map to existing code points. This is useful when creating a symbol font, but it creates an interoperability problem. If the font is not available, the glyphs won’t show up. Only use these glyphs when you can specify the Segoe MDL2 Assets font.
Hope I was able to help you with this info.

Hi again, yes, the Segeo symbols are the straw I've been using, which also includes the Historic ones.
It's a crutch that works for my personal use, since the symbols are only similar and just a few of them; Not that I'm complaining, I'm happy to have at least a few options, I just wish it was easier to get
"all" of the crochet symbols as Fonts.
When I have my patterns completed with the few Segeo symbol fonts, I then cannot publish them,
which is an issue.
I looked at some websites offering the download, but my computer warns that it might be malware,
hence my new inquiry if there is a safe site for crochet Font that can be downloaded.
Thank you again, and for understanding my issue. I appreciate all of your suggestions.
ciao.

Wouldn't Wingding's symbols be suitable for this either?
Not self-made symbols, but symbols :)).
If I can recommend, watch out from Download Free Websites. The sites that may advertise products often classified as a PUP (Potentially Unwanted Products).
Thoroughly research any product advertised on the sites before you decide to download and install it.
Furthermore, I wish you much success.

"Segeo" has some, other Font types have kind'a a few of the same, Wingding or Webdings don't have any at all. I'm all set with Segeo, they have some really good symbols that I can use.
Thanks again.
