Sorry, Nicolas. I appear to have read those bugs wrongly back then as "switch from bitmap fonts to vector fonts". I cannot remember ever having the faintest idea that those reports could have meant "convert your bitmap fonts to this new format". Anyway, now that this has been cleared up, what remains to do for me is to convert Terminus to the OpenType format without too many conversion errors. No idea yet whether I will use Terminus upstream's Python scripts to generate PCF and then use fonttosfnt, or change upstream's Python scripts to output OpenType, or use Terminus upstream's font sources as input to yet another tool to generate OpenType. I will have to evaluate all of these possibilities, and possibly more. And I will keep generating the font files for the other two formats in the same way (Linux virtual console and grub menu). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
