Hi, everyone, As a result of recent discussions on this list in the last few days, I decided to investigate Fontaine's handling and support of different font file formats in a more systematic fashion. In addition to filling in some gaps in support for Type1 Postscript fonts, I also did extensive testing on Apple OS X for the first time.
The result of this work is that Fontaine SVN revision 30 is now available with the following improvements: (1) Improved support for Type1 (Postscript) fonts. (2) Extensively tested to verify that Fontaine correctly handles the following font file types and formats: TrueType (TTF, OTF, CFF, Apple dfont and AppleDouble-encoded TrueType/OpenType), Type1 (.pfa, .pfb), and X11 bitmap (.pcf.gz). (3) Added XFree86 license detection. (4) Revised X11/MIT and IPA license detection. (5) Added a small addition to one of the CMakeLists.txt" (6) Improved handling of license URLs =========== Getting Fontaine =========== Fontaine is now a project on sourceforge: http://sourceforge.net/projects/fontaine/ Anyone may obtain the source code for Fontaine from the SVN repository: svn co https://fontaine.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/fontaine =========== Building Fontaine =========== Fontaine uses the cross-platform cmake-based build system: cd fontaine/trunk cmake . make su -c "make install" or sudo make install
