Considering changing fsType is just a change to 16 bits + a 32-bit checksum, it shouldn't be necessary to regenerate the entire font. In fact, Tom7 created a program to do just this job many years ago, called "embed": http://carnage-melon.tom7.org/embed/ I've just improved this to recalculate the OS/2 table checksum correctly and handle multiple fonts in one go: https://github.com/hisdeedsaredust/ttembed If you'd like to package this as well, you could use it in your Open Sans package and you'd have something else to show sponsors :-) -- Paul Flo Williams http://hisdeedsaredust.com -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
