Lohit Fonts Project
prerequisite to building Lohit fonts 1a. Open font in Fontforge, import .fea file and generate fonts 1b. Using Makefile
Scripts Usage:- Lohit git is now included with required Makefiles. 1)make all run this command from parent directory, it will generate all source, binary and web tarball. Once you checkout the .sfd files from lohit CVS, you just need to execute this script and you will get all .ttf files in respective language directory. You can then install those font files by copying them to ~/.fonts directory. Then execute fc-cache command and then relogin to use that font.
2)makedist.sh Use this script to generate upstream tarball used by fonts-indic SPEC to build rpms. e.g. To generate lohit-lang-$version.tar.gz follow steps as 1) Anonymous CVS access $ svn co http://svn.fedorahosted.org/svn/lohit 1) cd lohit 2) sh makedist.sh You will get upstream tarball used to build lohit-fonts-$version-1 rpm. NOTE:- This script can be used only from 2.1.1 and above version of this package.
Installing font (.ttf) file: You can install .ttf font files by copying them to ~/.fonts directory. Then execute fc-cache command and then relogin to use that font.
