Well, that's true for proprietary fonts, but not necessarily true for free fonts. I see FreeType upstream is working on ttfautohint, that may implies that there are the case autohinting is better than hinting in the font as it tries to remove the existing hinting data if any. | Those are broken fonts (they probably ship hinting information only | for | selected glyphs and leave the others entirely unhinted), and we | should force | autohinting manually for those fonts. Yes, I noted that in the contingency plan. it should be a trade-off. if we have a lot of _broken_ fonts, then it would be better doing it in fontconfig and stop using autohinting in the sane fonts then. -- Akira TAGOH -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
