With the circulating claim that my work is inferior, I don't feel comfortable recommending it be packaged for a distribution, especially since others say they have produced better product. However, as someone who doesn't print to cellulose, I personally haven't noticed any deficiency in my versions of the fonts, so what I do feel comfortable with is suggesting that until the better product is made available, you evaluate my versions. If, after a few months, no one publishes a superior font set and there does develop a consensus that my work isn't somehow deficient, then I would be willing to do the packaging work. You can use the fonts immediately, as a local user is creating directory ~/.fonts, and copying the fonts files there. If libreoffice is running, it may possibly be necessary to exit and restart the program. > 2017-06-27 20:14 GMT+03:00 Boruch Baum <[1][email protected]>: > > If Dov is correct and your results are superior, let me know when > you > upload yours for public distribution and I'll immediately delete my > repository with a link to yours. > On 2017-06-27 19:28, E.S.
