proposed font project

2004-05-30 Thread Paul Tremblay
I have been hard at work collecting high-quality fonts from the web,
generating an XML metrics from these fonts, creating fragments that one
can plug into the fop configuration file, and write short fop-xml files
to display the qualities of these fonts.

I think think that FOP could benefit from having a central place where
one could download these fonts and metrics files to get almost instant
fonts.

Does anyone else feel this would be helpful? I had planned to make the
fonts and metrics file avaible on Sourceforge. Any thoughts?

I was just thinking it would be good to add FONT resources to the FOP
Resources or Fonts pages. This sounds like a fine idea to me. In addition,
it might fit in to the XML Graphics spinoff currently being discussed.

It would also be good to develop some sort of hyphenation foundry...
