Summary: RFE: fontconfig-level locl patching
Product: fontconfig
Version: 2.6
Platform: Other
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: library
AssignedTo: keithp at keithp.com
ReportedBy: nicolas.mailhot at laposte.net
CC: fedora-fonts-bugs-list at redhat.com
Due to Han unification and other similar stuff parts of some fonts may not be
suitable for all locales.
This is handled by the locl flag in modern opentype fonts.
However there are still many non-opentype fonts in the wild, and it is not
possible to convert them all at once (when the license permits it).
There should be a way in fontconfig for font distributors to patch in via a
config file the locl characteristics of a font.
