--- Comment #98 from Hans Ulrich Niedermann <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Peng Wu from comment #95) > I just wrote one simple script to automatically group and convert the bitmap > fonts by family name and style name. [...] > URL: https://pwu.fedorapeople.org/fonts/convertbitmap/convertfont.py [...] > python3 convertfont.py bitmapfonts/*.pcf.gz This looks like just what I was looking for. Would you mind calling this script something more descriptive of what it actually does? `convertfont` is very generic and leaves a lot of space for interpretation. `bitmapfonts2opentype` or `bitmapfonts2otb` comes to mind. It says what the source format is supposed to be, what the destination format is, and that it converts more than one bitmap font into one otb file. Also, if one of the source file names happens to have a space in its name, using the shell to execute the subprocess given by a single string will cause `fonttosfnt` to try and fail opening filename parts. As always when calling subprocesses, composing a Python list for use as the `args` argument of `subprocess.run()` is the safer option here. I will be trying that script together with the new and improved `fonttosfnt` from the new and improved `xorg-x11-font-utils`[1] package to hopefully improve on the conversion results of Terminus to OpenType in `terminus-fonts-4.48-2.fc31.noarch`.
