Hebrew TrueType Font (TTF) for Tux Paint
|
||||
|
||||
The "he.ttf" font file is a TTF conversion of the "Nachlieli" font from the
|
||||
"Culmus" collection, which is distributed under the terms of GNU General Public License
|
||||
version 2.

Hi Bill,
|
||||
|
||||
As you recall, we had quite a challange to find a proper free font replacement
|
||||
for Arial that can be used with TuxPaint when displaying Hebrew.
|
||||
|
||||
It seems the problem is now solved.
|
||||
|
||||
I used the free font editing software pfaedit (pfaedit.sourceforge.net) to
|
||||
convert a free Type-1 Hebrew font (culmus.sourceforge.net - released under
|
||||
the GPL) to ttf and it seems to work well.
|
||||
|
||||
You can get the converted font from here:
|
||||
ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/kinneret/Nachlieli-Light.ttf
|
||||
|
||||
Since the original font is GPLed, I assume you can include this font in future
|
||||
versions of TuxPaint. The author of the Culmus fonts is also in the cc just
|
||||
in case you have any questions.
|
||||
|
||||
One more issue though - it seems that any attempt to type in Hebrew text (for
|
||||
the text entry tool) results in beeps. Can you please have a look at that?
|
||||
|
||||
Thanks a lot,
|
||||
|
||||
Dov.

|

This font is required to run Tux Paint in Hebrew.
|
||||
(e.g., with the "--lang hebrew" option)
|
||||
|
||||
To install, run "make install" as the superuser ('root').
|
||||
The font file will be placed in the /usr/share/tuxpaint/fonts/locale/ directory.
