Alternative formats? #26

Closed Arantor closed 11 years ago

Arantor commented 11 years ago

I've had a request to implement this for a plugin in a platform I look after, but I'm a little concerned about doing that in a cross-browser fashion. I know you're trying to get it implemented through Google Web Fonts but I'm personally not interested in using their solution for a variety of reasons I'd prefer not to get into.

Would it be possible to generate alternative formats? (Or, failing that, information on how I could possibly do so myself?)

TTF and OTF are great for general use but for cross-browser support, we potentially need to provide Embedded OpenType (eot), Web Online Font Format (woff), TTF and SVG font information.

I fully understand if it is not in your intention to support this, but if you could help in this, I'd really appreciate it. I'd also be willing to contribute to your time and effort in doing so if that would be helpful.

Using http://www.fontsquirrel.com/, its easy to generate various webfonts from the ttf and otf provided in the folder. I could look into a build process to do this and save me some time, but it wouldn't be anytime soon (unless someone has a method they don't mind sharing)

Thank you for your suggestion tho.
