Hi,
I'm maintaining the Play font in Debian, which currently builds the Play
font from the sfd sources (attached) which was present in the google code
repository. And I've been trying to figure out a bug[0] where the sfd files
generate a rather different font than the ttf files provided by google
webfonts.
First, I noticed that the sfd files are now gone with the move to GitHub,
does this mean that the ttf files would be considered the canonical source
for the font?
Second, I have a few fixes that I've applied as a patch (attached) to the
sfd files, to fix intersection, naming, and integral points, which still
seems to be relevant for the current ttf files as well?
Lastly, and the main point, is there any specifics on how to generate the
ttf files from sfd sources to make sure they are as similar to the google
web fonts ttf:s as possible?
