The lcdf > type tools (available at http://www.lcdf.org/type/) lcdf-typetools is now in Fedora Extras and in fact is what I have been using to use otf fonts in LaTeX quite succesfully. I have used it to make Type1 fonts for system use - though I ran into some oddities with some fonts - such as Helvetica having some numbers (1 and 2) superscript when they shouldn't be. Same thing with the superscript happens with fontforge -c 'open($1); generate($2)' HelveticaLTStd-Roman.otf HelveticaLTStd-Roman.pfb However, using fontforge to generate a .ttf works just fine. I suspect that (at least with Helvetica) I need to tell it more about which glyphs it is suppose to use. I'm guessing the font has a superscript 1 and 2 and when making the more limited glyph set .pfb - it guesses wrong about which 1 and 2 it should use. Interestingly, the Helvetica LT Std font generated for LaTeX using otftotfm works just fine, it's just generated .pfb's for outside latex that have the issue. > Note though that converting to t1 format looses all of the opentype > features.

When Mozilla couldn't print them I thought support just wasn't there at all - but it seems now that was just the print font cache wasn't updated so it used the fallback. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
