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.
