In order to preserve bitmap font names as we switch to sfnt for
XFree86, I need to have fonttosfnt put the original font name in some
place where mkfontscale can find it.
The proper way would be to formally define a new sfnt table, for
example ``XF86''. However, I think it is simpler and quite as
I want to make one point clear, that is *.enc encoding files are used by

XFree86 how to handle gb18030 codes in all parts, but in fontenc
layer(FreeType module) ONLY.
Looking at Sun's gb18030.2000-1, they seem convert all four-by

I need to pick an extension for the bitmap-only SFNT fonts[1]. While
