-TTF2f
------
-
-TTF2f converts TTF and other font formats supported by FreeType2
-(http://www.freetype.org) to RISC OS format fonts suitable for use with
-the Unicode Font Manager.
-
-NOTE: Please read the section "Converting a font" as a minimum _before_
- using this software.

-1. Converting a font
-====================
-
- In order to convert a font, follow the following process:
-
- 1) Run the application and open the main window.
- 2) Drag the source font file to the window - the file path will appear
- in the Converting display field.
- 3) Choose a RISC OS font name for the font and enter it into the
- Fontname writable field.
- 4) Select the location to save the output font from the drop down menu
- (this is comprised of all entries in your current Font$Path)
- 5) Click convert and wait for conversion to complete.
-
-2. Progress Bar
-===============
-
- During the conversion process, the progress bar will be filled three
- times - once per file being created. This is indicated by the colour of
- the bar:
-
- Dark Green indicates that the glyph metrics are being extracted.
- Red indicates that the IntMetrics file is being written.
- Blue indicates that the Outlines file is being written.
- Green indicates that the Encoding file is being written.
-
-
-3. Future Enhancements
-======================
-
- There are a number of possible enhancements which could be made to TTF2f.
-
- 1) Kerning data.
-
- At present, any kerning data present in the source font is ignored. It
- may be desirable to copy this data across into the RISC OS IntMetrics
- file.
-
- 2) Improve conversion speed.
-
- TTF2f is not particularly fast at conversion, although in most cases
- conversion time should be acceptable. Particularly large fonts do take
- some time to convert (for example; BitStream.Cyberbit (a font
- containing about 30,000 glyphs which cover much of the common Unicode
- character range) takes approximately 25 minutes to convert on my
- Iyonix).
-
-
-4. Known Issues
-===============
-
- At the time of writing there is one known issue.
-
- 1) Attempts to quit TTF2f whilst conversion is occuring will be ignored
- (this includes use of Alt-Break).
