Summary description: Font encodings, metrics and Lua script fragments for font
creation
Announcement text:
Font encodings, metrics and Lua script fragments for generating font support packages for 8-bit engines with l3build. Optional template-based system enables the automatic generation of font tables and l3build tests. Easy addition of variable scaling to fd files (unsupported by some tools). Primarily designed for fontinst, but can be adapted for use with other programmes. Default configuration is intended to be cross-platform and require only tools included in TeX Live, but the documentation includes a simple adaption for integration with FontForge and GNU make.
This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/fonts/utilities/fontscripts More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/fontscripts
Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Manfred Lotz CTAN is run entirely by volunteers and supported by TeX user groups. Please join a user group or donate to one, see https://ctan.org/lugs .
