import fontforge
#fontforge.loadNameList('aglfn.txt') # Might be optional

#font = fontforge.open('existing.sfd')
font = fontforge.font() # new font

glyphNameAndOutlineFilename = {
    ('A', 'capital-a-glyph.svg'),
    ('Adieresis', 'capital-adieresis-glyph.svg'),
    ...
}

#characterAndOutlineFilename = {
#   ('A', 'capital-a-glyph.svg'),
#   ('Ä', 'capital-adieresis-glyph.svg'),
#   ...
#}

for name, filename in glyphNameAndOutlineFilename:
    glyph = font.createMappedChar(name)
    glyph.importOutlines(filename)
    # May need to set glyph.width here

#for c, filename in characterAndOutlineFilename:
#   glyph = font.createChar(ord(c))
#   glyph.importOutlines(filename)
#   # May need to set glyph.width here

#font.generate('output-font.ttf')
font.save('output-font.sfd')
