Yeah, fonts in metafont format are not concerned. The TEX community seems to realise they need to use the same formats as everyone else now anyway, all their recent work is OpenType (and Unicode, and fontconfig: XETEX). The problem is more historic users used to the previous we-are-special-and-different-and-don't-work-with-anything-else state. Another bug target will eventually apps that can not use TTF/OTF and force us to ship the same fonts in multiple formats. -- Nicolas Mailhot _______________________________________________ xorg mailing list xorg@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
