Lohit2: Improvement plans for Lohit-Kannada !!

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

 



Hi All,

    First some update on existing activities of lohit2 project, planning
for Lohit-Devanagari Beta and Lohit-Gujarati Alpha release by the next
week.

    Regarding Lohit-Kannada other than same improvements for other
script fonts like

    1. Following AGL while renaming lohit-gujarati
    2. Feature file separate as done in lohit-devanagari
    3. Supporting "knda" and "knd2" Opent type tag
    4. Thorough testing with Harfbuzz and Uniscribe (will test with
Windows XP as well to make sure webfonts will render correctly everywhere)

    There are some more things needs attention

    1. Removing unnecessary glyphs. Bug for that already reported by
Shriramana [a]
    2. Some other needed attentions are [b][c]

    From designing perspective, i dont know why each glyph in Lohit
Kannada carries negative witdh, see right bearing. It will be good if we
can get rid of it. It will be appreciated if someone can help me to fix
this.

    These are the points from myside, if anything missing or need
attention please let me know. On the top of this need lots of help from
you all for testing activity.

    Development is going on https://github.com/pravins/lohit2 repo. Once
get ready for alpha, will merge it main lohit repo.


Best Regards,
Pravin Satpute
