Hello George,
First of all, thank you very much for your reply. :-)
I just did more test on the font: it seems that FreeType 1.x does recognize
the font, but FreeType 2.x doesn't:
$ ftlint 24 /home/foka/MING_UNI.TTF # FreeType 2
unknown format
$ ftlint1 24 /home/foka/MING_UNI.TTF # FreeType 1
MING_UNI.TTF: Error with
glyph 35787: Invalid composite glyph.
1 fail.
And "ftview1 24 /home/foka/MING_UNI.TTF" can be used to view the font.
So, I guess each of FreeType 2.x and MING_UNI.TTF has a small bug of their
own. Let's see if we can try to fix both. :-) Meanwhile, I should upgrade
to the latest FreeType 2.1.x (CVS STABLE branch) and do more testing.
Many thanks,
Anthony
