[PATCH 6/6] Makefile: now support other common export formats

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Based on the previous patch, we create a generalization of how was
"ttf" target handled to support exporting also to other common
formats.  We add "4web" target covering common formats used on
the web (HTML/CSS:font-face): TTF, WOFF, SVG, EOT.
It is easy to add other formats if needed and provided that
such format is supported by FontForge.

To be honest, I am not sure about two things:
- Is the existing TTF export OK for web usage?  Have been exploring
  this field shortly, but cannot defuse my confusion (TTF/OTF, ...).
- Is hardcoded "fmflags" parameter in scripts/fontexport.pe
  OK also for formats other than TTF?
