My only comment is that is the entries below look like a version 4x
configuration entry. I believe the version 3x entries were structured
differently. That software is more than 12 years old and we don't even have
documentation around anymore for it.

Okay...converting to ttf with a different converter did work.
However I can't get the Italic Version to work. From what I found on the web
I have to adapt fonts.xml like this:

<font-group>
                <font-family name="TheSerifB W4 SemiLight" embed="true"
subset="true">
                        <font>
                                <font-data ttf="TheSerifB-W4SemiLight.ttf"/>
                        </font>
                        <font style="italic">
                                <font-data
ttf="TheSerifB-W4SemiLightItalic.ttf"/>
                        </font>
                </font-family>
</font-group>

However now the font doesn't get displayed at all. Not italic and not
regular.

Any suggestions ?

cheers

Betreff: [xep-support] How to integrate otf-fonts in XEP 3.x

Hi,

I have XEP 3.x running here and updating is not an option because it's
running on some legacy system and ripping that version out breaks a whole
lot of things.

I need to integrate some otf-fonts so I put this in font.xml:

<font name="TheSerifB-W4SemiLightItalic"
otf="../afm/TheSerifB-W4SemiLightItalic.otf" embed="true">
                <alias name="TheSerifB - W4 SemiLight Italic"/> </font>

The file really does exist under ../afm/TheSerifB-W4SemiLightItalic.otf and
font-name is correct as well.

I also tried converting it to ttf and using that but that didn't work
either.

Any ideas ?

cheers
