It is part of the fink package on the mac. To enable the truetype debugger, FontForge needs to have the freetype source directories available when it is built (there are some include files there which it depends on.) Then you may enable the interpreter by setting the appropriate macro in *./include/freetype/config/ftoption.h* before you build the library (see the README.UNX file on the top level of the freetype distribution). Now that they have expired, you no longer need to worry about this, unless your setup happens to use an old library version. It used to be disabled by default because of some patents granted to Apple. Some of FontForge's commands depend on you compiling freetype with the byte code interpreter enabled. To do a better job rasterizing bitmaps, and to enable the truetype debugger.
If not present FontForge contains a minimal version of the library which allows it to work.īut if you want to use libiconv you must configure it with -enable-extra-encodings, as FontForge requires Shift-JIS.
#FONTFORGE SCRIPT INSTALL#
(If the machine on which your executable was build didn't have them, then you must not only install the libraries, but also rebuild FontForge from source. Most of these are not required for the proper compilation/execution of FontForge, if the libraries are not present they will not be used. It makes installing these libraries easier.
If your system comes with a package manager, use it. If you want to do autotracing around character images you should also download either
