At last I have got a decent display of Greek text in NetSurf, I did it by TTF2Fing the DejaVuSans/ttf font that I found in !Boot.Resources.!UnixFont.truetype.ttf-dejavu on my Iyonix and putting it in !Boot.Resources.!Fonts. To get a decent display on the Raspberry Pi I had also to remove from !Fonts the fonts Cabin, Exo, Fanwood, FanwoodText, Roboto and RobotoCond. I know that Exo has a slightly broken Greek font and it may be that the others are OK, but for the moment I shall take a rest from testing.
It would be nice to have a tool to split up big unicode fonts into smaller fonts, so that a mistake in one glyph or glyph-encoding does not mean having to jettison all the rest. I must confess that I find the whole font business very Heath-Robinson. No doubt there are good historical reasons for that. -- Gavin Wraith ([email protected]) Home page: http://www.wra1th.plus.com/
