For the record: Yes, fontforge does contain the code from Adobe. However, it is already possible now to use different code for OtherSubrs. That's what I have done in my FPL fonts. See URW-OtherSubrs.ps and the ReadOtherSubrsFile statement in the pe-files in <URL:http://dante.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/fpl/source/>. I expect that the code will not work out of the box with current fontforge versions, but the principles should still apply. Hence the fontforge bug for containing the OtherSubrs code from Adobe does in no way block the corresponding bug in various font packages, even if they were edited with fontforge. The feature to define OtherSubrs was introduced in 2005 (cf <URL: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.fonts.fontforge.devel/861>). cheerio ralf -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
