I see. :) Well, I hope the AppStream and fontconfig metadata are mostly OK for the moment - at least for the urw-base35-fonts. I've spent a lot of time to get it right. (Currently, there was a small issue with typo in AppStream metadata that has a pull-request waiting for acceptance, and small issue with Standard Symbols PS being to big when used for LGC fonts.) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ fonts-bugs mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
