[Fontforge-devel] BitmapsAvail in (fontforge) scripts

[Greg F. <gr...@re...>]

Hi

I've had this problem for nearly a year, but I thought it was my script.
It occurs with current cvs on Ubuntu.
The following script causes a segfault on every font I've tried it with:
 a = Array(3)
 a[0]=13
 a[1]=18
 a[2]=25
 BitmapsAvail(a)

While I'm on the topic of bitmap fonts, I have a question.
Is it necessary (or even helpful?) to include bitmap fonts in
OTF dfonts for Mac OS X? 
I make OTF fonts for Mac users (from my Linux PC),
and I always include bitmaps in the OTF,
but only because I always used to include
bitmaps when I made OS 9 fonts...

Thanks in advance.
