RE: RE: RE: RE: New Font Causes Double Spacing
Oh, sorry Ronald, I thought this was a "dev" system, it's a target ...
that's why there is no font-traplist ... anyhow, all the config entries
appear in the fontdir, so that is fine ... stay tuned.

RE: RE: RE: RE: New Font Causes Double Spacing
Hi Ronald,
FreeSans,0@freesans_.ttf,ARIAL,0,,0020-F002,f,79x170,556K
FreeSansb,0@freesansbold_.ttf,Arial,0,B,0020-F002,f,79x170,277K
Notice that 'f' there, the font subsystem identified it as 'fixed-width'
in 632. I do recall an issue with this, which seems to be corrected on
64x, as it identifies it as 'proportional'. You can fake it out by just
changing that 'f' to a 'p'.
Just to cover all the bases, we ran these fonts through a validater, and
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but these fonts are "bad". There
are many glyphs that contain erroneous parameters, and bad bounding
boxes. The rasterizer used by the font sub-system is built for speed,
and especially after initialization, does not check for all errors.
What I am trying to say is these fonts will corrupt memory over time, if
not in short order. I suggest getting them fixed, or obtaining higher
quality fonts.
Kind Regards,
-Derek
