The people at bengali.org (and its links) are using dynamic fonts to display
bengali script. This is one of the good technologies of NS ver 4.0 which never
caught widespread use. Does anybody have any experience in installing such a
system ? Can we have a public font server from which any body can use it to
publish their own webpages (using links)? Actaully I was thinking of running a
webserver and font server combination just like the banner ads work for any
site. Does the PFR server allow access from any web server ? Are there any
alternatives of PFR format ?
I guess this is not the right forum for such questions. If somebody could
provide some good links, I would appreciate it.
Thanks
