SYNOPSIS

# hash to hold the fonts file, where $wd is the font directory

# json and saved to a file.

DESCRIPTION

This class has the purpose to hold the list of available fonts, which has to be provided to the constructor via a json file or as an arrayref of Text::Amuse::Compile::Fonts::Family objects.

To build a json file with some default fonts, you may want to try "the muse-create-font-file.pl" script installed with this distribution.

CONSTRUCTOR

new($file_or_arrayref_with_fonts)

The constructor accept either a file or an arrayref with fonts specifications.

Each font specification is used to construct a Text::Amuse::Compile::Fonts::Family object, which in turn may contain Text::Amuse::Compile::Fonts::File objects.

Keys of the hashref inside the arrayref:

name

The name of the font. This is the system name, something that fontconfig will understand. You can try with fc-list to see if you can find it. Mandatory.

type

The type of the file. Can be either serif, sans or mono. Mandatory.

desc

An optional free form description.

regular

The path to the regular font file (.ttf or .otf or .woff)

italic

The path to the italic font file (.ttf or .otf or .woff)

bold

The path to the bold font file (.ttf or .otf or .woff)

bolditalic

The path to the bolditalic font file (.ttf or .otf or .woff)

Please note that the paths to the files are optional. They are used only for the EPUB generation, when the files are embedded in the final file.

Also note that the name of the fonts is not arbitrary. Fontconfig needs to recognize it for a successful LaTeX compilation.
