Package: defoma-doc Severity: minor
I am trying to install local Opentype fonts into Debian using defoma. For some years now, Opentype is the industry standard for fonts. defoma seems to supports opentype fonts somehow, but defoma-hints obviously doesn't support autogenerating hints for this (bug #477435, side note in bug #422763). The bug reports exist since two years now, this seems to be a design limitation. The defoma documentation doesn't mention any font formats, so one would expect opentype is supported by all parts of defoma. I would propose adding a sentence like "Supported font categories are truetype and type1" to the "Description" section of the defoma-hints manpage (or supporting opentype, but that doesn't seem to happen soon).
