1 Modify the OpenSymbol.sfd and generate opens___.ttf from it with fontforge. The
2 .sfd is the canonical source for the .ttf
4 Every new version of the font should increase the font version. This is
5 important so that when two versions of the font are installed, e.g. one
6 bundled inside the office installation, and one already installed on the system
7 that the most recent font can be detected and favoured.
9 Bumping the font version is easiest done manually by bumping the two places in
10 the .sfd where the version is mentioned, e.g.
15 -LangName: 1033 "" "" "Regular" "OpenSymbol" "" "Version 102.3"
16 +LangName: 1033 "" "" "Regular" "OpenSymbol" "" "Version 102.4"
18 The glyph names in the font should follow Adobe Glyph list for new fonts
19 (http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/opentype/aglfn13.txt) or just the
20 uniXXXX scheme (see http://www.adobe.com/devnet/opentype/archives/glyph.html for
23 Fragments of OpenSymbol are mapped internally to a number of other
24 fonts for interoperability purposes. See
