The FontForge source code includes a number of utility programs, including 'showttf', which shows the contents of binary font files, and a WOFF converter and deconverter.įontForge supports a wide variety of font formats. Parts of FontForge's code are used by the LuaTeX typesetting engine for reading and parsing OpenType fonts. Since the Novemrelease, FontForge uses libcairo and libpango software libraries for graphics and text rendering, providing anti-aliased graphics and complex text layout support.įontForge can use Potrace or AutoTrace to auto trace bitmap images and import them into a font. At least one free OpenType mathematical font has been developed in FontForge.įontForge uses FreeType for rendering fonts on screen. It also supports the unofficial Microsoft mathematical typesetting extensions ( MATH table) introduced for Cambria Math and supported by Office 2007, XeTeX and LuaTeX. įontForge supports Adobe's OpenType feature file specification (with its own extensions to the syntax). FontForge can run scripts from its GUI, from the command line, and also offers its features as a Python module, so it can be integrated into any Python program. To facilitate automated format conversion and other repetitive tasks, FontForge implements two scripting languages: its own language and Python. It is available for operating systems including Linux, Windows, and macOS, and is localized into 12 languages.

But the problem is that every time we do load up a Google Font on our Webflow site, we also add the Google API script which is loaded during the initial page load. Right, fonts and how to properly optimize fonts.Īlright, throughout our design, we might use Google Fonts. But we still need to give a helping hand here. ![]() So, how to make Webflow site load faster? Well, Webflow already produces great code and has super-fast servers□. I saw that a lot of you struggle to optimize their Webflow site speed and guess what□? I’ve launched a couple of episodes on Youtube on how to hit that 100% mark inside Google Lighthouse and WebAim. Hi everyone□! Happy Tuesday, happy Tuesday to you all. ![]()
