Hi!

|FTGetEnglishName(f, TT_NAME_ID_PS_NAME, ...)| returns strings which are
not valid in PS code for PS Type1 fonts (e.g they contail spaces...
;-/).
For example |FTGetEnglishName(f, TT_NAME_ID_PS_NAME, ...)| returns
"Lucida Bright Lat2 Demi Italic" while the PS Type1 value for
"/FontName" is "/LucidaBrightLat2-DemiItalic".


1. Is that a bug or a feature ?
a feature I suppose :-)

There is no "FTGetEnglishName" function in FreeType. What are you
speaking of ?

2. How can I get the value for "/FontName" using the FT2 API ?
by using "FT_Get_Postscript_Name" or even "FT_Get_PS_Font_Info" ?

Hope this helps,
