Dear all, I'm trying to improve the examples in the fontspec manual. As well as improving the examples already there, I'd like to eliminate the use of any non-free fonts so that others can compile the manual without trouble. I've got a few areas I'm stuck on, since my font repertoire isn't very large. 1. Does anyone know of any free fonts that have optical size variants? 2. I'm looking for examples which use (and don't need too many explanations) the following features: - Contextual swashes (cswh) - Uppercase spacing/kerning (cpsp)
Several of the fonts available at http://arkandis.tuxfamily.org/adffonts.html seem to support this feature (though I haven't tested it). I checked my copy of BerenisADF-Regular-Italic.otf, for example, with otfinfo -f.
- Historical style (hist)
Similarly, I checked RomandeADFScriptStd-Italic.otf and it lists both hist and hlig. I not sure about cswh but you could ask Hirwen Harendal which, if any, of the fonts support the feature. Good luck, cfr
Does anyone have any good ideas here? 3. All of my Japanese examples use the Hiragino fonts distributed with Mac OS X; are there any free alternatives I can use that supports features such as ruby, kana style, annotations, "CJK Shape", and so on? 4. I'm aware that I'm not fully covering the OpenType feature list in fontspec. Has anyone noticed obvious areas that should be included? (And, if so, suggestions on how they should be used with examples would be very, very helpful.)
