Yes, we sort of pay our previous laxity. Lots of fonts that should have been packaged long ago (of course it'd be better if the app just used fontconfig as some of those have been replaced by better default since; this lists reads like Debian defaults a few years ago) > ar.ttf is a font named ae_Nice from arabeyes.org - it doesn't seem to be > packaged for fedora at the moment Arabeyes is not packaged, and the OLPC people want it too There are two open reviews but they're stalled and the original packager has not given any sign of life for a long time (bug #462711 and bug #461139) > bo.ttf is a font named Tsampa Keyboard - not packaged as far as I can see - > seems to be tibetan LGPL font from http://tsampa.org/tibetan/software/tsamkey/ Could be packaged > el.ttf is a font named Thryomanes - not packaged as far as I can see It's in the wishlist http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Thryomanes_fonts But it's not considered as good as the GFS fonts for example nowadays > he.ttf - Nachlieli-Light - The font is available in fedora in > culmus-nachlieli-clm-fonts but that is not a ttf-font but a type1-font. I am > not sure if tuxpaint would work with that. Try it? Otherwise if the culmus project could just provide TTF or OTF versions of its fonts, we'd certainly prefer them over type1 > hi.ttf - Raghindi - not sure about this one - Raghindi seems to be a font > family and not a specific font? Any locals? http://www.yudit.org/download/fonts/raghu.txt Not modifiable, can not be packaged > ka.ttf - TuxPaintGeorgian (c) Gia Shervashidze - most certainly not packaged Good luck finding which one of its fonts it is, this guy created a lot of them http://cg.scs.carleton.ca/~luc/georgia.html they're all over the net usually without any clear licensing. It would probably be best to try to contact the author and ask him to publish some fonts in a canonical place with all the legalities taken care of. http://blog.mozilla.com/seth/2008/11/07/gia-shervashidze-our-gerogian-localizer/ Otherwise spot packaged bpg fonts recently in bug#483865 , and DejaVu Sans has Georgian support IIRC > ta.ttf - TSCu_Comic - not packaged but serafettin-cartoons-fonts is packaged > and has "It is based on Thukkaram Gopalrao's TSCu_Comic of tamillinux project" > in it's description. That one might be sufficient. Right > te.ttf - Vemana2000 - not packaged Being packaged in bug #481009 (waiting on packager action, probably not stalled yet) > zh_tw.ttf - Traditional Chinese SubsetForTuxPaint - Tuxpaint ships ships a > script called maketuxfont.py for this font. Probably better to replace with whatever font is preferred for chinese nowadays (ask juhp) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Fedora-fonts-bugs-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-fonts-bugs-list
