Here is a quick overview of what you need to do in order to have fontmatrix up an running. Requirements : - CMake (>=2.6.0) - Qt 4.4 (with QtWebKit) - Freetype2 (>=2.3.5) *not to mention that you need the developpement packages. Build instructions are (where $FM_SOURCE_DIR is the root directory of the Fontmatrix source distribution, the very same directory where this INSTALL file is. To be more specific, you must replace the expression "$FM_SOURCE_DIR" by the actual path of the root directory of the Fontmatrix source distribution): $ cd $FM_SOURCE_DIR $ mkdir build $ cd build $ cmake .. [-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug]\ [-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/install/prefix]\ [-DWANT_HARFBUZZ:bool=true]\ [-DWANT_ICU:bool=true]\ [-DWANT_M17N:bool=true]\ [-DTRANSLATOR:string=locale*]\ [-DWANT_PYTHONQT:bool=true**]\ [-DWANT_PODOFO:bool=true***] $ make At this point, the fontmatrix binary is in build/src/ directory, if you want, you can try to install it (default installation path is /usr/local) with: # make install If you encounter problems or just have questions or if you have suggestions, please take time to suscribe to the undertype-users mailing list ( https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/undertype-users ). If you want to reach us quickly, come to #fontmatrix at Freenode. ââââââââââââââââââââââââ * Pass -DTRANSLATOR:string=locale to cmake then run "make translation" to update the ts file before you edit it with Qt4 Linguist program (more informations in the inline help). ** Python scripting is supported through PythonQt, itâs still experimental --if itâs possible to be more experimental than the whole Fontmatrix program. Itâs known to build with PythonLibs 2.6 as it comes with openSuse 11.1. if you experience issues with other setup, please do not give up silently, drop us a word about it. *** Makes extracting embedded fonts from PDF files possible.
