afdko (Adobe Font Development Kit for OpenType)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The goal of the Adobe Font Development Kit for OpenType package is to
|
||
|
|
share the tools used by Adobe font developers for wrapping up
|
||
|
|
PostScript (i.e. Type1) fonts as OpenType/CFF font files, and adding
|
||
|
|
OpenType layout features. These tools are used for in-house
|
||
|
|
development of new Adobe OpenType fonts.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Now that Libreoffice has dropped support for Type1 fonts, one can use
|
||
|
|
afdko to convert the system Type1 fonts to OTF, which
|
||
|
|
Libreoffice supports. The package Type1_to_OTF does this.

Notes for x86_64
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As received from upstream, adfko forces the building of 32-bit
|
||
|
|
executables. This is fine on a 32-bit system. On a 64-bit system, the
|
||
|
|
SlackBuild enables a 64-bit build. This is experimental and unsupported,
|
||
|
|
but seems to work OK (at least for makeotf and tx).
