Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I'm offering some packages up for adoption so I have more time for the
others.

gfontview is a useful tool to view fonts. Upstream appears dead, and
it's a gtk1 package. I won't work on the code bug(s), so if someone
wants to give the package more care, I'd be pleased to hand over. (I
will eventually tackle the wont-build-twice packaging but unless
someone else beats me to it, though.)

Maintaining a package requires time and skills. Please only adopt this
package if you are *sure* you will have enough time and attention to
work on it.

If you want to be the new maintainer, please see
http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/index.html#howto-rfa for detailed
instructions how to adopt a package properly.

Description: font viewer for Type 1 and TrueType fonts
 gfontview is a font viewer for outline fonts, PostScript(tm) Type 1 and
 TrueType(tm).
 .
 gfontview allows you to display a particular character or string of a
 font in an own window, thus allowing a comparison between several fonts
 with a particular string sample. This character or string can be
 antialiased (smoothed). The string can also consider the kerning pairs if
 available in the AFM or TTF file. The displayed character or string can be
 saved in GIF format.
 .
 A table with all glyphs in the font (for PostScript Type 1 fonts also
 in several encodings) can also be created. A custom encoding will be
 generated on the fly to allow you to see all characters (also not
 encoded ones) in a Type 1 font, the so called "Custom" encodings.
 .
 You can also print a sample of a font. The program generates PostScript
 code with sample strings in several sizes, which you can download to any
 PostScript printer or to ghostscript.
 .
 TrueType fonts can be saved as Type42 PostScript fonts.
