-------------------------------------
Attachment: (was: FOP-2540.patch)
> Enhance TTF/OTF support beyond Windows
> --------------------------------------
>
> Key: FOP-2540
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOP-2540
> Project: FOP
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: font/opentype
> Affects Versions: 2.0
> Environment: OS X
> Reporter: Andreas L. Delmelle
> Assignee: Andreas L. Delmelle
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: test_osx_fonts_after_1.log, test_osx_fonts_before.log
>
>
> Currently, cmap tables in TTF/OTF are only supported for Platform ID = 3,
> i.e. MS Windows. There is no support for Platform ID = 0, i.e. basic Unicode,
> or 1, i.e. Macintosh.
> This makes quite some system fonts bundled with OS X supposedly unusable. The
> solution is fairly trivial (patch proposal will be attached shortly),
> provided the cmap table format in the font is already supported. FOP
> currently only has support for cmap format 4 (segment to delta mapping), but
> this seems to suffice for most of the Unicode cmaps as well.
> See also FOP-2539, which triggered me to investigate this closer.
