Forgot to tell why I need the glyph paths... I implemented multi path support in drops yesterday and now I want to test it with some glyphs. Currently I use Inkscape (export the glyph path as PDF) and pdftoedit to finally get a MP path. Time consuming and the result still needs a manual clean-up. Here is my current test example. Needless to say, that the path blew up my code in the first run (a too low threshold value) :-D http://www.wuala.com/indiego/public/ConTeXt/pathtest.pdf Am 19.02.2014 13:25, schrieb Peter Rolf:
Hi,
I tried the "Dcaron" example from the MetaPost manual (page 50) and it works nicely when called with "mpost".
% Dcaron.mp fontmapfile"=lm-ec.map"; beginfig(56); picture q; path p; interim ahlength:=12bp; interim ahangle:=25; q:= glyph "Dcaron" of "ec-lmr10" scaled .2; for item within q: p:= pathpart item; drawarrow p withcolor(.6,.9,.6) withpen pencircle scaled 1.5; for j=0 upto length p: pickup pencircle scaled .7; draw (point j of p -- precontrol j of p) dashed evenly withcolor blue; draw (point j of p -- postcontrol j of p) dashed evenly withcolor blue; pickup pencircle scaled 3; draw precontrol j of p withcolor red; draw postcontrol j of p withcolor red; pickup pencircle scaled 2; draw point j of p withcolor black; endfor endfor endfig; % -------
But how can I get the glyph path(s) with luatex (mplib)?
Minimal example (glyph.mkiv) and console output are attached (log is empty). Looks like I can't use 'fontmapfile' and without it the glyphs are not found.
