Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Defoma stands for Debian Font Manager. It provides automatic font configuration framework and some nice useful features like alias, priority and substitution.
One of the components, defoma-ps manages PostScript fonts. It includes a program to register PostScript fonts installed in a PostScript printer, which enables these fonts appear in the font-choosing menu of postscript-outputting applications. In addition, it provides a list of available PostScript fonts and XLFDs which substitute for the PostScript fonts, so that X applications which need a pair of a PostScript font and a XLFD for their font configuration can easily perform font configuration. There were no framework for automatic font configuration so applications force users to manage to do configure fonts by themselves. I belieave Defoma will solve this problem.
