Hi, Two years! Thats a really long time. But dont worry, I have just found a sound solution to this problem. Its very simple and I have just tried it. The solution goes like this: 1. Open your font file (.ttf/otf, or .sfd) in fontforge. 2. Select all Glyphs. 3. use function: Element-> Transformations-> Transform.. 4. From either of 2nd, 3rd and 4th dropdown list select Scale.. 5. Now enter the scaling factor in both X and Y dimensions as you choice. e.g. scaling by 200% in both will make all the selected glyphs double in size. 6. Now save the file. 7. And generate the font. It's that simple. And it works 100%. Rahul Bhalerao [Indic Fonts Team, HBCSE, TIFR.] "Suraj N.

For example, see this screenshot and notice how the English words "Link" and "Mouse" (near the bottom of the picture) appear much bigger than the surrounding Telugu text. Is it possible to use something like fontconfig to specify that a particular font should have a larger default size than others? Maybe by specifying a larger DPI for that particular font? For example, if all fonts on my system are made for 96 DPI, can I configure fontconfig/Xft/GTK/whatever to render Pothana2000 text at a higher DPI? I would really appreciate any thoughts or comments on this issue. It has been annoying me for two years now. :-( Thanks, - -- à°à±à°°à°ªà°¾à°à°¿ à°¸à±à°°à°à± | people.ucsc.edu/~skurapat | GPG: 0x162728C7 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFDsJ+PmV9O7RYnKMcRArhyAKCkDteN6TPgHDuOB8Kc6/viyL+MTwCcDEu/ RDNpyw4HDqTg78V41iaCAsA= =/y/k -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
