1. What's this?
=================
The Liberation Fonts is font collection which aims display compatibility to
document files that used Times New Roman, Arial, Courier New as fonts.
2. Requirements
=================
* fontforge to be installed.
(http://fontforge.sourceforge.net)
3. Install
============
3.1 Decompress tarball
You can extract the files by following command:
$ tar zxvf liberation-fonts-[VERSION].tar.gz
3.2 Build from the source
Change into directory liberation-fonts-[VERSION]/ and build from sources by
following commands:
$ cd liberation-fonts-[VERSION]
$ make
The built font files will be available in 'build' directory.
3.3 Install to system
You can manually install the fonts by copying the TTFs to ~/.fonts for user
wide usage, or to /usr/share/fonts/truetype/liberation for system-wide
availability.
4. Usage
==========
The fonts should be installed and detected by the system after installation.
Simply select preferred liberation font in applications and start using.
5. License
============
For redistribution information, please read the GPL license file 'COPYING'.
For EULA information, please read file 'License.txt'.
6. Maintainers
================
(FIXME)
Before packaging a new release based on a new source tarball, you have to
update the version number in the Makefile:
VER = [VERSION]
Make sure that the defined version corresponds to the font software metadata
which you can check with ftinfo/otfinfo or fontforge itself. It is highly recommended that file 'ChangeLog' is updated to reflect
changes.
Create a tarball with the following command:
$ make dist
The new versionned tarball will be available in the dist/ folder as
'liberation-fonts-[NEW_VERSION].tar.gz'.
(FIXME)
