Hello, I would like to add a Burmese font to the Monospace family (in order todisplay the glyphs for the Unicode Ranges U+1000 to U+1100). I have somettf-files to choose from (e.g. MyaZedi.ttf), but I don't know how toconfigure them. Especially I have no clue about how to assign a familyname to a ttf-font or to determine it from the ttf-file, if it iscompiled into it. I tried fontforge on the installed fonts forMonospace, but I only get information, which seems to be similar to whatI find declared in my conf.d-files, but no exact matches. On my system (Linux Suse 10.2, KDE) I use Monospace Bold as a defaultfont in my KDE-konsole as well as in vim/gvim. When I follow the inputsto these programs with strace I get the following informations for thefonts to be loaded for various alphabets: Latin: /usr/share/fonts/truetype/DejaVuSansMono-Bold.ttfJapanese: /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ipag.ttfArabic: /usr/share/fonts/truetype/terafikb.ttfHindi: /usr/share/fonts/truetype/Gargi_1.7.ttfArmenian:/usr/share/fonts/truetype/FreeMono.ttfGeorgian: /usr/share/fonts/truetype/FreeMonoBold.ttf For these files I get in fontforge the following families:DejaVuSansMono-Bold.ttf: Deja Vu Sans Monoipag.ttf: IPAGothicterafikb.ttf: Terafik BoldGargi_1.7.ttf: Gargi_1.7FreeMono.ttf: FreeMonoFreeMonoBold: FreeMono As far as I understood, the fontfamily is selected in the file /etc/fonts/conf.d/40-generic.conf. On my system this files looks like this: <?xml version="1.0"?>> <!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">> <fontconfig>> <!--> Mark common families with their generics so we'll get> something reasonable> -->>> <!--> Serif faces> -->> <alias>> <family>Bitstream Vera Serif</family>> <family>DejaVu Serif</family>> <family>Times New Roman</family>> <family>Times</family>> <family>Nimbus Roman No9 L</family>> <family>Luxi Serif</family>> <family>Kochi Mincho</family>> <family>AR PL SungtiL GB</family>> <family>AR PL Mingti2L Big5</family>> <family>ＭＳ 明朝</family>> <family>Baekmuk Batang</family>> <family>SimSun</family>> <family>FreeSerif</family>> <family>MgOpen Canonica</family>> <default><family>serif</family></default>> </alias>> <!--> Sans-serif faces> -->> <alias>> <family>Bitstream Vera Sans</family>> <family>DejaVu Sans</family>> <family>Helvetica</family>> <family>Arial</family>> <family>Verdana</family>> <family>Albany AMT</family>> <family>Nimbus Sans L</family>> <family>Luxi Sans</family>> <family>Kochi Gothic</family>> <family>AR PL KaitiM GB</family>> <family>AR PL KaitiM Big5</family>> <family>ＭＳ ゴシック</family>> <family>Baekmuk Dotum</family>> <family>FreeSans</family>> <family>MgOpen Modata</family>> <default><family>sans-serif</family></default>> </alias>><!--> Monospace faces> -->> <alias>> <family>Bitstream Vera Sans Mono</family>> <family>DejaVu Sans Mono</family>> <family>Courier</family>> <family>Courier New</family>> <family>Andale Mono</family>> <family>Luxi Mono</family>> <family>Cumberland AMT</family>> <family>Nimbus Mono L</family>> <family>NSimSun</family>> <family>FreeMono</family>> <default><family>monospace</family></default>> </alias>> </fontconfig>>> Can anybody explain me how the family Names are assigned to the ttf-files and what I have to do to make my font becoming member of the Monospace family?
