Subject: ttf-kochi-gothic-naga10: Tetex bindings for these fonts?

Date: Fri, 21 Mar 2003 04:40:03 +1100

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Package: ttf-kochi-gothic-naga10
Version: 0.2.20020727-3
Severity: wishlist

How about having latex bindings for this font in the package?
This would be as simple as: having the font installed to or
linked from /usr/share/texmf/fonts/truetype/kochig/
Ship .tfm files generated with
ttf2tfm kochi-gothic.ttf kochig@Unicode@
in /usr/share/texmf/fonts/tfm/kochig/

And (somehow, I dunno, the tetex-maintainers probably have a way)
add a line like the following to /usr/share/texmf/ttf2pk/ttfonts.map:
kochig@Unicode@ kochi-gothic.ttf

(kochig just happens to be the abbreviation I used I don't think it
really matters. Obviously this also applies to ttf-kochi-mincho and
both -naga10 and non-naga10 variants, but I don't think I need to
submit seperate wishlist bugs? :-)

This would be really nice because the only font setup for CJK-latex's
UTF-8 support is Bitstream's CyberBit, which is not pacakged for
Debian, and must be downloaded from mozilla.org.

To be honest, I'm only just wrapping my head around latex and fonts,
so maybe this is something that defoma can and/or should be handling?

Investigating tfm-arphic, I think this tfm things should not be merged
to ttf-kochi/ttf-kochi-naga10 packages.  Instead, it's good idea to
create tfm-kochi-mincho and tfm-kochi-naga10 packages newly.

The reason is: ttf-kochi/ttf-kochi-naga10 includes only truetype font,
and this is not intended to provide tfm fonts.  I plan to make otf/cid
kochi font packages, so I would like to separate it from TeX.

I think so, defoma should manage these texmf fonts.  It's good idea that
you submit to defoma about supporting texmf as wishlist.

What do you think?
