# fcfontsdir Add @fcfontsdir ${FONTSDIR} to PLIST_FILES
|
||||
# none No special handling of ${FONTSDIR} in PLIST_FILES
|
||||
|
||||
# Ports should use USES=fonts with an argument only when necessary.
|
||||
# By default, @fcfontsdir ${FONTSDIR} is added and it updates font
|
||||
# information cache file of fontconfig library, and XLFD entries
|
||||
# in fonts.dir and fonts.scale file, which are directly used by
|
||||
# X server and xfs font server.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# Xorg supports TrueType and OpenType via either of the two font
|
||||
# subsystems. @fcfontsdir is designed to update configuration files for
|
||||
# both of them to register a font file. Specifically, fc-cache and
|
||||
# mkfontdir utilities are used, respectively.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# Ports to install fonts with which mkfontdir or fc-cache do not work well
|
||||
# should use :fc and/or :fontsdir argument. fc-cache and mkfontdir
|
||||
# get information such as fontname, encoding, etc. from a font file.
|
||||
# However, mkfontdir does not understand information in some scalable
|
||||
# fonts. Typical examples are TrueType Collection format and
|
||||
# CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) TrueType font. The former is
|
||||
# a format which contains multiple fonts in a single file.
|
||||
# While Xorg supports it, mkfontdir does not generate correct
|
||||
# fonts.dir entries from a TTC font. CJK fonts often require
|
||||
# modifiers in a XFLD entry to enable special feature which mkfontdir
|
||||
# does not support, either.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# Note that ports which do not want mkfontdir need to use
|
||||
# a separate FONTSDIR, not shared ones such as misc or TTF.
|
||||
# This is because other ports using @fcfontsdir or @fontsdir
|
||||
# update fonts.dir in these font directories upon installation
|
||||
# and deinstallation. mkfontdir will overwrite manually-added entries.
