Even better than DOC, I can embed the font in a RTF file! So it literally can be edited by gedit :) And the start/stop strings are fairly straightforward, so its just a question of figuring out what sort of compression they used.
Here, I will post a working RTF I just finished. It contains the Arial Narrow font which, according to Microsoft's own program in XP: "may be embedded in documents and permanently installed on the remote system" That sure sounds like a license to redistribute to me! =D Try generating the TTF with Wine+W97viewer and drop it into ~/.fonts and see if it works in OpenOffice.org for you :-) ** Attachment added: "Arial Narrow embedded in a RTF document generated by Word 97" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/16675465/Arial_Narrow.rtf -- msttcorefonts lacks the 'Tahoma' font https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/50529 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
