NAME App::FontUtils - Command-line utilities related to fonts and font files VERSION This document describes version 0.002 of App::FontUtils (from Perl distribution App-FontUtils), released on 2022-08-30. SYNOPSIS This distribution provides tha following command-line utilities related to fonts and font files: * otf2ttf * ttf2otf FUNCTIONS otf2ttf Usage: otf2ttf(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta] Convert OTF to TTF. This program is a shortcut wrapper for fontforge. This command: % otf2ttf foo.otf is equivalent to: % fontforge -lang=ff -c 'Open($1); Generate($2); Close();' foo.otf foo.ttf This function is not exported. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * otf_file* => *filename* * overwrite => *bool* * ttf_file => *filename* Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element ($reason) is a string containing error message, or something like "OK" if status is 200. Third element ($payload) is the actual result, but usually not present when enveloped result is an error response ($status_code is not 2xx). Fourth element (%result_meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional metadata. Return value: (any) ttf2otf Usage: ttf2otf(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta] Convert TTF to OTF. This program is a shortcut wrapper for fontforge. This command: % ttf2otf foo.ttf is equivalent to: % fontforge -lang=ff -c 'Open($1); Generate($2); Close();' foo.ttf foo.otf This function is not exported. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * otf_file => *filename* * overwrite => *bool* * ttf_file* => *filename* Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error).

Fourth element (%result_meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional metadata. Return value: (any) TODO "list-fonts" to list installed fonts on the system (in a cross-platform way). Tab completion. Filtering OTF/TTF, etc. "show-fonts <font names> [text]" to show how fonts look. Allow specifying wildcards. Allow specifying filename for source of text. Tab completion. "install-font <font files>" and "uninstall-font <font names>" to install and uninstall fonts (in a cross-platform way). Allow specifying regex/wildcard in uninstall. Tab completion.

SEE ALSO AUTHOR perlancar <perlancar@cpan.org> CONTRIBUTING To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull requests on GitHub. Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You can simply modify the code, then test via: % prove -l If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla, Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two other Dist::Zilla- and/or Pod::Weaver plugins. Any additional steps required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me. COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE This software is copyright (c) 2022 by perlancar <perlancar@cpan.org>.
