Hi,
I have a question on font.conf.
In font.conf, we can set up a <match target=font> for oblique/italic font,
using
the feature from freetype. Hence, when the apps select a italic sans font, by
the
series of match/edit operation, a pre-configured font(s) will used for
different
lang. In my understanding, using the default font.conf file, when a
sans-12:oblique,
the effective font being used is a the preferred font PLUS a scaling with the
matrix
{1,.2,0.1}. When the font, is rendered. It is already scaled. The result will
be a
artificially transformated glyphs image.
But, how can I setting up the font.conf, so that, for every font-family, there
is a list of
entries like :
- AR PL Mingti2L Big5:style=Reguler
- AR PL Mingti2L Big5:style=Italic
As of the current situation, when apps requestion available fonts listing, and
present
the available font to user, obviously, there is no font file which can provide
the italic
Mingti2L font. Hence, the user will only see that, there is one Mingti2L font,
which is
"style=Reguler", however, as the artificial scaling/italic is here, I wonder
if there is any
way for me to set up the config, so that, when apps request for fonts,
fontconfig will
also provide "AR PL Mingti2L Big5:style=Italic".
Thx
Zenith Lau
