I have not look at simplefonts as I want -- I planned
to use it for an article on felltypes for arstexnica
You fixed the problem with the felltype fonts?
No, maybe this weekend I will able to investigate a bit more .
The problem is the follow:
pdf make with felltypes and mkiv looks ugly in AdobeReader9 ---but not in xpdf with latest freetype -- because of a unsual em size. If you install the fonts in OpenOffice, the same document looks ok.
$>pdffonts felltype.pdf name type emb sub uni object ID ------------------------------------ ----------------- --- --- --- --------- PDPWHW+LMRoman12-Regular CID Type 0C yes yes yes 4 0
DUTOMC+IM_FELL_Double_Pica_PRO_Roman CID Type 0C yes yes yes 5 0
$>pdffonts felltype_oo.pdf name type emb sub uni object ID ------------------------------------ ----------------- --- --- --- ---------
FTLUYL+IM_FELL_Double_Pica_PRO_Roman Type 1C yes yes no 8 0 FTLUYL+IM_FELL_Double_Pica_PRO_Roman Type 1C
So I don't understand how OO "transform" this opentype in a Type1 , and if is it possible to do the same thing in mkiv.
