1. What's this?
|
|
=================
|
|
|
|
The Liberation Fonts is font collection which aims display compatibility to
|
|
document files that used Times New Roman, Arial, Courier New as fonts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Requirements
|
|
=================
|
|
|
|
* fontforge to be installed.
|
|
(http://fontforge.sourceforge.net)
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Install
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
3.1 Decompress tarball
|
|
|
|
You can extract the files by following command:
|
|
|
|
$ tar zxvf liberation-fonts-[VERSION].tar.gz
|
|
|
|
3.2 Build from the source
|
|
|
|
Change into directory liberation-fonts-[VERSION]/ and build from sources by
|
|
following commands:
|
|
|
|
$ cd liberation-fonts-[VERSION]
|
|
$ make
|
|
|
|
The built font files will be available in 'build' directory.
|
|
|
|
3.3 Install to system
|
|
|
|
You can manually install the fonts by copying the TTFs to ~/.fonts for user
|
|
wide usage, or to /usr/share/fonts/truetype/liberation for system-wide
|
|
availability.
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Usage
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
The fonts should be installed and detected by the system after installation.
|
|
Simply select preferred liberation font in applications and start using.
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. License
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
For redistribution information, please read the GPL license file 'COPYING'.
|
|
|

For EULA information, please read file 'License.txt'.

|
6. Maintainers
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
(FIXME)
|
|
Before packaging a new release based on a new source tarball, you have to
|
|
update the version number in the Makefile:
|
|
|
|
VER = [VERSION]
|
|
|
|
Make sure that the defined version corresponds to the font software metadata
|
|
which you can check with ftinfo/otfinfo or fontforge itself. It is highly recommended that file 'ChangeLog' is updated to reflect
|
|
changes.
|
|
|
|
Create a tarball with the following command:
|
|
$ make dist
|
|
|
|
The new versionned tarball will be available in the dist/ folder as
|
|
'liberation-fonts-[NEW_VERSION].tar.gz'.
|
|
(FIXME)
|
|
|
