Xft
Posted by Sayamindu 4 years, 1 month ago
I spent the evening looking at Xft. It all began with me trying to find out how to get the actual physical filesystem location of a XftFont. After a lot of googling, found out these two informative documents. Anyway, I finally figured out it’s as easy as:
XftPattern* pattern;
char *filename; /* Store font filename here */pattern = m_pXftFontD->pattern;
XftPatternGetString (pattern, XFT_FILE, 0, &filename);
Now I feel stupid - meh! 
Activities on the GNOME Indic printing scenario
Owen posted a patch to the gnome-print mailing list which adds initial level integration between Pango and gnomeprint. Looks pretty interesting.
