Re: Font Metrics for Adobe Acrobat Asian Font Pack
There are currently some talks about fonts. You may want to look into the fop-dev mailing list. All the details can be found there. Whether OpenType fonts with CFF glyphs (like the ones from the font pack) are going to be implemented is not clear right now. Implementing CFF would probably not be a large thing but the fact that we're planning on adopting an external font library might complicate things a bit.

I think it would be really important to support the Adobe OpenType font pack for Asian languages, since it would allow for complete open source support of Asian languages without requiring any font embedding or proprietary font licensing. I don't have any working knowledge of OpenType fonts or CFF glyphs, but I am willing to help out with any implementation task if I can be of use to get this done.

Title: Font Metrics for Adobe Acrobat Asian Font Pack Does anyone know how to create FOP font metrics for the Adobe Acrobat Asian font pack? I would like to support Japanese documents without having to embed the Microsoft TrueType fonts in the PDF file. Alternatively, does anyone have a font metrics file they can send to me? Thanks in advance. Regards, Dave
