The first sentence could then become the package synopsis. That would give: Description: font editor for PS, TrueType and OpenType fonts - runtime library Besides being a font editor, FontForge is also also a font format converter, and can convert among PostScript (ASCII & binary Type 1, some Type 3s, some Type 0s), TrueType, and OpenType (Type2), CID-keyed, SVG, CFF and multiple-master fonts. . This package contains the runtime library. As you see, the synopsis, then becomes "$SUITE - $ELEMENT" with $SUITE being common to all binary packages and $ELEMENT being specific to each package. Similarly, the first paragraph is a boilerplate that's used in all binary packages, and the last paragraph gives information specific to each binary package. This is the preferred system that's often proposed in reviews by debian-l10n-english when we work on packages' descriptions.
