I just had impression that your bdf-to-otf program was very close to be completed, and expected it to appear in 4.3.0. Do you have a web page where you host it? If not - may be, it worth to create project at SourceForge so that people would be able to see your work (and may be, hack on it)? BTW: Do you have some updated results for BDF-to-OTF font conversion? I remember that you have posted results some time ago, and wondering wether there was some progress since that time. Can you pls also elaborate what are *not fixed* issues with current code (and whaty prevents you from using it on XFree86's BDF fonts right now)? | | I'm sorry, Vadim, but I do have a daytime job. That's not bad, as not everyone has daily job. | | Juliusz | | _______________________________________________ | Freetype mailing list | Freetype@freetype.org | http://www.freetype.org/mailman/listinfo/freetype -- Vadim Plessky SVG Icons * BlueSphere Icons 0.3.0 released http://svgicons.sourceforge.net My KDE page http://kde2.newmail.ru (English) KDE mini-Themes http://kde2.newmail.ru/themes/ _______________________________________________ Freetype mailing list Freetype@freetype.org http://www.freetype.org/mailman/listinfo/freetype
