#Gurmukhi font bundle how to

Kenshi Muto confirmed personally that the issue is present. Still there is a issue with the kana and kanji glyphs which are not well mixed for Japanese. We no longer use ttf-cjk-compact-udeb for CJK for some time now!ДЇollowing are historical information for CJK languages, no longer up-to-date: Although freefont has support for Bengali, it seems that there are still some problems.

Update: 343446 confirms that ?MuktiNarrow should be used. (by silent I mean that 'fc-list :lang:bn' does not list nothing other than Mukti, but the installer uses something else, anyway). 343446 tries to analyze the problem.Д«engali: Mukti Narrow looks great, but there is some more stripping to be done (apparently) because this font is silently overridden by freefont (probably). There was a report stating that Bengali does not look right. Resources: #indlinux IRC channel on and eventually It seems that Kashmiri has special glyphs wrt other Devanagari-based languages. Doubts about complete support in Freefont. Gargi_1.7.ttf in ttf-devanagari-fonts also possible. Saab.ttf of lohit_pa.ttf from ttf-punjabi-fonts also possible (soumyadip: well I was reading somewhere that AnmolUni was better) - this font should be (apparently) in ttf-punjabi-fonts, but is not currently (1:0.4.7) Gargi_1.7.ttf in ttf-devanagari-fonts recommended by Paras pradhan Gargi_1.7.ttf in ttf-devanagari-fonts also possible

Kadige-* in ttf-kannada-fonts suggested by indlinux contributors. ?MuktiNarrow in ttf-bengali-fonts recommended by translators (udeb requested with 375475) TriChlorSet is 'all rights reserved'.Дisplay is correct with fonts-freefont, even the 'Е‹' characters dejavu state is unknown The licenses for HanNomSet have not been studied. Status / is not supported yet but uses only ASCII characters

Red: we're missing something to properly build g-i with the recommended fontД«ase characters (Latin) are taken from fonts-dejavu (existing udeb).

Yellow: we have the recommended configuration but the rendering has not been confirmed correct.

Green: rendering has been checked and confirmed correct with the mentioned setup.

#Gurmukhi font bundle how to

Information on how to play around with fonts is included in DebianInstaller/GUIBuild.

Latin scripts are provided by most fonts, but they can be fixed with some Fontforge scriptingДavide Viti created a fontforge script, that will allow stripping unnecessary glyphs or glyph ranges from the fonts. The fonts overlap too much - CJK fonts provide also codes for Latin scripts. We really need to add characters as we need them, not to strip them from fonts. It is possible to 'strip' characters from a font (This is currently done in the developement versions with a fontforge script) Only font files that are actually used in the installer should be included.Total amount of space used for fonts should be minimized.It would be very nice if we could influence which font is used for a specific language. Possibly font configuration can be improved.Display has to be good both when no language has yet been selected (language selection screen) and when it has.The current fonts have a lot of overlap which wastes space. Ideal would be to have each character we need present in only one font.Please note that the screenshots are a little outdated currently. Help from translators may be needed to decide the optimal font for the installer (taking into consideration both quality and space required). Special attention should be given to non-latin languages (Indic languages, Arabic, Hebrew and Vietnamese). Translators should check if their languages are displayed correctly and check for missing characters.The following issues are open with respect to fonts: One of the main advantages of the graphical version of the installer is that it can support languages that use combining characters.
