Re: [Devel] CFF-rendering

[Tom Kacvinsky]

Hi,

I am the guy responsible for the CFF driver.  Unfortunately, I do not have
a 16 bit platform to test on.  What exactly is the problem? I cannot get
any problems with this font using the latest CVS code on a SPARC Solaris
2.7 box, using 32 bit code (rather than 64 bit code)
