Description:

utilities for manipulating GNU Unifont

This is a set of Perl scripts, C programs, and FontForge scripts to manipulate Roman Czyborra's GNU Unifont ".hex" format font files. GNU Unifont has a Unicode-compatible font structure. These utilities allow editing ".hex" fonts with text and graphical editors, producing final versions of fonts in BDF, PCF, PSF, TrueType SBIT, and TrueType outline formats. . To build the TrueType fonts, install the package 'fontforge'. To build the PCF fonts, use 'bdftopcf', which is in the 'xfonts-utils' package. To build the PSF font, use 'bdf2psf', which is in the 'console-setup' package. To obtain the font sources, run 'apt-get source unifont'. . Building the main Unifont TrueType font will require at least 4 GB of main memory. You only need texlive (~1 GB) if you want to rebuild the unifont.pdf file in doc/ (see doc/Makefile); this is not done by default.
